My POV:

As people challenge the SC’s value and the amount of time they spend actually working, these are actually an ideal way to stop that critique and provide documentation that can be cross checked across sources. I think it’s a value add to SC members to do this given the potential boost in public perception it could provide.

I’d love to see more specifics. Instead of saying we had 10 meetings, give a super brief outline of those meetings. Who did you meet with? What was the topic? What was the outcome? I’m going to guess every SC member takes meeting notes as is standard practice for every org I’ve been a part of, so hopefully this actually is just a quick copy and paste in some cases instead of a lot of additional work. Also if you have dozens of meetings a week where updates for each one wouldn’t be practical, maybe focus on outlining the outcomes of the meetings that you felt made the most impact and you’re most excited about. That can cut down the amount of time and effort while still providing valuable additional insights to the community at large.

I understand that for privacy and in some cases legal reasons not all details can be given, but I think things are far too general right now to provide at least me any value in reading many of these.

For context I actually voted against this AIP, but now that it’s implemented, let’s make the most of it.

This.

@BoredApeG it would be nice to see more detail into what’s on the agenda next week, rather than Pinky and the Brain references please? :wink:

I agree with you, a summary and feedback on meetings is interesting even for community members.
But it was great that way too.

this should be the bare minimum.

According to their role description, we should be seeing

  • evidence of the meticulous reviews they’ve completed on every AIP.
  • Their contributions to the governance structure of the DAO.
  • Opinion essays, some body of work outlining the current problems the DAO faces.

we really don’t see any of this. atm, the only Proof of work is a link to random twitter spaces with ranting and arguing.
