Tevo Saks - CCv2 Toolmakers Rep
Stephen Whitenstall - CCv2 Funded Proposer Rep
This meeting sought to clarify the questions -
What is a parameter change ?
This task was assigned to Tevo Saks & Stephen Whitenstall by Community Governance Oversight Meeting 4.
What is a parameter ?
A necessary process or change.
What is a parameter change ? There will be quantitatively and qualitative parameters.
In terms of what must be documented, sufficient information should be available on current / expected state and who owns the change.
Who "owns" the parameter?
Scope of change - what is being changed (includes current state and expected state)
Why this parameter is set in place? (How does it benefit the Cardano Mission?)
How is the parameter effectiveness measured?
Operational Parameters
Examples - minimum pool cost, increasing block size.
What types of parameter are there ?
discrete, particular, atomistic. A change to a fixed value or constant.
Change to a process
Change to rules of how to conduct a process. Either a new or current process / parameter.
Example - vCA has to submit Quality Control assessments trough Google Form using Google Sheet link.
Consequence of changing the parameter
Low impact - change to a fault tolerant process
High impact - change to a fragile process
Low Auditability - Lack of information and about the project and how the goals are achieved
High Auditability - we have better view how the proposal will be completed
What is a parameter change?
A parameter change is a change from a current state to a new state with a process of consultation.
Stakeholders who will be impacted by the parameter change. Anyone who controls the Intellectual Property.
A decision process is defined for the parameter that assigns ownership & identfies its scope.
A specific parameter is identified.
Temporary ownership of the parameter is assigned to a decision making body.
How to make decisions in quorum?
