📋 govNERDs Weekly Update

Week of January 19-25, 2024

🎯 Sov’s Recap

Wow, what a week. I started my onboarding journey and appreciate the help from each of you in ramping me up for Season 7. For starters, congrats to everyone who was selected in Season 7!

My initial read on how we'll approach changes this season is that we'll focus on maintaining core operations while improving task management and contribution paths. The first community call was successful, with strong attendance and engagement. I was able to work with Gonna, Brichis, Julian, and many of you. You can find details on the call (including a transcript and the slide deck) at the Discord Link 👇

Important Updates 🚨

  1. Julian will take over task assignments and management for the next few weeks while I overhaul our platform and task management system. This will ensure no disruption to critical governance functions.
  2. The task board will be under maintenance for several weeks. During this time, tasks will not be available for community members to claim. We plan to reopen community contributions once we have better infrastructure to effectively manage and support these valuable contributions.

RE: WannaBe/In-Training 🤓

I have had many interactions with wannabes/in-trainings and appreciate the opportunity to work with all of you. My immediate priority will be to focus on core govNERDs and ensure everyone is up to speed on their roles and responsibilities. We will work to evolve and better define the wannabe → in training path, but that will come after Core govNERDs are on stable footing. To set expectations, this will be a few weeks, at best, before it is addressed.
