Stakeholders making smart decisions #6

Open xaur opened 5 years ago

xaur commented 5 years ago

Tell a story about how a lot of poor proposals were rejected, preventing sub-optimal allocation of collective resources.

This article will be a nice tool to counter the "holders cannot make good decisions" idea.

Not sure this would have much credibility coming from us, "we think we're making smart decisions"?

Maybe after some time has elapsed it will be more interesting to look at decision-making, but for now all we could really claim is to have avoided funding proposals that most of us thought were poor :)

That is exactly what I had in mind. Agreed we can wait a bit more and collect more cases. The idea is to tell a readable story about past votes that avoided waste of money. In projects with no community input, developers can just ride expensive conferences, make expensive partnerships and integrations and run out of money.
