Further Coop AGP application construction

Furthering Coop AGP application construction is an AGP-40 deliverable.

The Aragon Cooperative, as an organization that holds ANT and also engages with the broader Aragon community, could do a lot to improve AGP engagement. As a community facing organization, we could help the broader Aragon ecosystem understand the pain points, problems, and needs of voters. We could also help drive engagement in the overall ANV process. This might look like:

• collectively voting on how to vote in AGPs using the DAO's ANT (and only using DAI to fund requests for compensation)
• engaging in broader Aragon community discussions around AGPs
• submitting AGPs that benefit the broader Aragon ecosystem
• reaching out to Ethereum ecosystem partners (newsletters, podcasts, social media) to get the word out about the upcoming ANV and how ANT holders can participate
• helping to improve new voter onboarding and voting UX
• user studies reaching out to voters to better understand their questions, comments, and concerns around the ANV process, how to actually vote, and why it matters.

In the last ANV, while we did not hold ANT, we started to collectively vote on how we felt about each AGP. Moving forward we should do this using the ANT in the vault.

I (burrrata) have also started a thread in the Forum on AGP Analysis and Suggestions for Improvement. As part of this I plan to submit a few meta proposals in the next ANV:

• Separation of Signalling and Voting
• Aragon Voting Gauntlet
• and a few more around the process for requesting funds.

This is a good start, but we have a lot more work to do if we want to earn the respect of the broader Aragon community. There's a lot we can do, and there's no reason to wait :)
