An open platform that incentivizes collaborative content and projects
I have accomplished all items in the scope to the present date, on time, and within budget. See below for details.
This proposal is to fund the creation and maintenance of what I'm calling "Dash Community". Dash Community is an open platform that incentivizes collaborative projects and content, using a transparent, powerful, and relatively easy-to-use hosting service, i.e. Github.
The primary motivation for this project is to increase the value of Dash. Details of the proposal can be found at the proposal's landing page.
- Dash Community organization (Github)
- Dash Community landing page
- Guides
- Create a proposal from a template
- Create a proposal template
- Set up a masternode
- Set up a virtual private server
- Submit a proposal to the dash network
- Proposal templates
- Simple
- Detailed
- Proposals
- Blog
- Sample project management board
- Community support
- Updated landing page for Dash Community)
- Landing pages for guides and blog
- Status report template
- This status report
- Community support
- Proposal with re-scoped project (according to community and masternode operator feedback/desires)
- Status report in two weeks showing progress and any required re-scoping and/or re-scheduling
- Payments to people who join and make at least one meaningful commit to the organization
Table 1 below lists the key deliverables with anticipated completion dates.
ID | Description | Completion Date | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
M1 | D1.1 through D1.12 | 2016-10-18 | done already |
M2 | D2.1 (community support) | continual | expand platform / community support |
M3 | D2.2 (new proposal) | 2016-11-09 | re-scope and deliver new proposal |
M4 | D2.3 (status report) | 2016-11-16 | second status report on 2016-11-30 |
M5 | D2.4 (payments) | 2016-12-01 | all promised payments sent at latest |
Total proposed project costs are summarized in Table 2. I would like to compensate community members. I propose paying all community members who join and contribute at least one meaningful commit to the organization. Proposed rewards are shown in Table 3.
Item | Cost | Units | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
Deliverables | 200 | DASH | See Table 3 |
Community Partcipation | 50 | DASH | See Table 4 |
Total | 250 | DASH |
Cost | Description | Reward | Cost | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
C5 | First 10 people... | 1.0 DASH | 10 DASH | ...who make 1 or more commits |
C6 | Next 20 people... | 0.5 DASH | 10 DASH | ...who make 1 or more commits |
C7 | Remaining people | 10 DASH | split between remaining who join | |
C8 | Discretionary | 20 DASH | for great content (blogs, guides, etc) | |
Total | 50 DASH |
If the project is funded I will develop another separate proposal to continue supporting the project into future months. The scope, schedule, and budget for that revision will be based on community feedback.
This project can grow as large as we wish. The more financial incentive we can offer the more expansive the platform will become, which will lead to a healthier, more decentralized ecosystem. The platform is ideal for
- developers (projects that need to host code)
- writers (of blogs, guides, etc.)
- marketers or anyone who wishes to host community funded files and content on a powerful, transparent platform
