Which Discord server? What entity will own it? Which will operate it?

[bigbull]

Continuing the discussion from AIP-246: Working Group Charter - Marketing & Communications:

@ssp1111

Discord is a key platform for this collaboration with the community and will remain a key space for engaging with the most actively involved community members. This highly engaged group of people is a key strength for ApeCoin DAO.

In terms of Discord, our key priorities will be to assist the Governance Working Group in terms of branding, to help provide opportunities for community involvement, to share branding information and to understand how best to leverage DAO tools to create more opportunities for community involvement in marketing and communications.

Good to have a discussion on these 3 points:

1. Which Discord server?
2. What entity will own it?
3. What entity will operate it? and on what terms?

Agreed, discussion required.

Mar/Comms main goal when drafting the charter was to provide marketing & communications services to whoever was managing the ApeCoinDAO server. As it seems likely the GovWG is doing so, I imagine they’d be the ones to work with legal and the foundation to determine “ownership”.

What are your thoughts?

1 - Are there discussions taking place to create another server? As a community member, I’d be puzzled if we decided to set-up another server as /ApeCoinDAO seems to be the “official” one already.

2 - Should AIP-317 pass, GovWG would be the only official LLC capable of taking ownership, and may be the only official LLC for at least another 4-6 months.

3 - GovWG to operate with mod help from community if it gets much busier.

If Mar/Comms was up and running today, I’m not sure Discord management would be high up on the priority list of marketing & communications tasks to tackle, as the broader community will want to see some visual “campaigns” being executed by such a WG. It’s part of the juggling act.

Just my two cents or can I say tuppence
