Let's see how the [White Paper] drafts come together this month.
We'll have an After Town Hall to introduce what we're working on to the community and recruit reviewers.
Depending on our pace over the next month this may take a little bit longer than what we originally planned.
03:38
[Philip] did reach out to us and said that he will be adding his draft very soon.
04:09
I haven't read through it carefully, but he does have a significant amount that he's contributed. So I do see good progress there. And I plan to get together with him separately to go over that in more detail.
I added to the section in the white paper, the general flow begins with what Kenric highlights as a good first example : the separation of powers between Cardano Foundation, Emurgo and IOG.
And how that simple example explains the bigger idea of Banzhof Power Indices.
I would like to provide the example from [Wolfram] software as opposed to website that we currently have. But that's a good placeholder.
06:11
The second part addresses how when we relate this to Project Catalyst there's much more nuance and complexity.
And so when we want to think about how to actually do that calculation, what are the things we need to take into account and some of these things are limitations, some of these things are?
- What's the best way to represent information that we don't have ?
- What are some of the best ways to simplify [the data set] so that it makes sense and can be handled computationally ?
- How technical do we want to be with reference to the Banzhof definition ?
- How much from the research papers do we want to cite in respect of the Banzhof definition ?
- Visualisations are the best way to articulate a big idea. Is that something that we want to see in this section here ?
08:17
These are great questions. Because once you get started with formal definitions that can be pretty lengthy in itself.
Whether we want to include that as part of the white paper depends on your time and on how it balances with the other sections.
For this white paper it may be okay to just reference.
There's kind of a minimum isn't there? We need an absolute reference of what the Banzhof Power Index is. A need to refer to the definitive paper or the definitive reference
a? And then anything more than that will be some kind of exposition of that formal formal definition. We just thought, well, you're saying stuff.
I am concerned that we have not resolved the clear difference between the computation on the website I was using and the computation that your colleague had done. Did you get any clarification as to what the difference is ?
12:05
I got clarification that there is difference. I did not get clarification why the definition from the research paper differs.
So I've not been able to identify what from the research paper is different from what's been implemented as the function.
It's the question is kind of is that the right definition? Or is there some mistake in the research paper?
