Hi @steven004 - we have a draft of your scoring here - please see Column H for some comments!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l95mDpn8v2rF9s_G-SfgHKmKl0np_tUR8A09V69AxRY/edit?usp=sharing
Would you be able to review and address? Specifically I want to call your attention to: Row 21: To ask if you could provide a little bit of clarity on your 10% cap proposal (and how you intend to increase the allocations). Additionally, if you'd like to see an example of what a higher detail application might look like - there is a good example here.
Row 22: To ask if you'd be interested in open sourcing the tooling you'll be using!
Row 23: To call out that the current Filecoin Plus Registry currently integrates only with a Ledger for signing. You can still accept requests from the Registry (and iterate in the public repo), but if you intend to use other tooling to process the allocation you will likely need to do that out of band (and we can coordinate with your team how we can give you API write access to publish your actions in the Repo).
Please note this scoring might be affected by the proposed rubric update here: https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/pull/36
@jnthnvctr ,would you please grant me the access to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l95mDpn8v2rF9s_G-SfgHKmKl0np_tUR8A09V69AxRY/edit?usp=sharing.
Without the access, I can just reply the questions below based on my understanding at this moment.
Row 21: To ask if you could provide a little bit of clarity on your 10% cap proposal (and how you intend to increase the allocations). Additionally, if you'd like to see an example of what a higher detail application might look like - there is a good example here.
Did not see Row 21 for the 10% cap proposal. But if you mean my 10% incremental allocation strategy. I mean that I would regularly check the clients' verified data (all data, or randomly picked data). While if all of checked data are qualified, the client's next data cap could have maximum 10% increase.
Row 22: To ask if you'd be interested in open sourcing the tooling you'll be using!
Yes, no problem.
Row 23: To call out that the current Filecoin Plus Registry currently integrates only with a Ledger for signing. You can still accept requests from the Registry (and iterate in the public repo), but if you intend to use other tooling to process the allocation you will likely need to do that out of band (and we can coordinate with your team how we can give you API write access to publish your actions in the Repo).
I would think there is no difference between signing with a Ledger or with an air-gap signing software. And in the early stage, it is also fine to do it out of band. Please point me to the integration document or implementation, so that we can move on to nail down the solution.
@jnthnvctr To address your questions, I updated the application to include more information, including the detailed scoring system, mainly focus on the Allocationn Strategy and the Client Due Diligence.
Hi @steven004 based on your updated submission - we have scored your applicatoin here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/1tfwRJvoWo8UNN7OKoE_2H6hZX8urfOkCaOsxe5H6vBM/edit?usp=sharing
Eligibility score: 2 Unrounded score: 2.2
Hi @steven004 - as mentioned on the governance call yesterday, your team was in the top of your region for being a prospective Notary! Prior to confirming your role as a Notary, there are a few items that need to be affirmed:
Please acknowledge the region of operation in which you tend to primarily focus: [GCN]
Please confirm each of the following items below (you can do this by adding a line under each section agreeing that you'll abide by these operational principles.
Upfront Disclosures: Prior to being confirmed as a Notary, Notaries are expected to disclose all relevant addresses which they control, have a financial stake in, or are strongly connected to by other means. For the disclosure, the Notary should state the relevant addresses and the nature of the relationship.
Promoting Client Best Practices: Notaries agree to educate approved clients about the best practices for using their DataCap (e.g. how to request additional services from miners, storing data redundantly across many miners, etc). Some reference information can be found here.
No Self Dealing: To prevent conflicts of interest, Notaries should not allocate DataCap to Clients over which they control the private keys, or to a Client who intends to specifically spend the allocated DataCap with an address affiliated with the Notary. When in doubt, Notaries should bias towards transparency (i.e. public disclosure) or to getting a different Notary to handle the individual request.
Operating in good faith: Notaries hold a position of trust in the network, and as such it is expected that they operate keeping the Principles of this mechanism in mind. While each form of abuse cannot be exhaustively defined, Notaries are expected to bias towards caution and act in a way that promotes transparency. Notaries should expect to potentially receive requests or questions for allocation decisions (within reason) - and should make decisions with this in mind.
Please list any addresses you are affiliated with below - stating the nature of the relationship. Please refer to the first bullet point in (2) for the definition of "affiliated", and bias towards transparency when in doubt.
Please affirm that you will abide by the allocation / client due diligence plan you laid out above.
(If ready) - Please confirm the address that should receive DataCap.
Additionally, if you plan on being listed in the Filecoin Plus Registry - please confirm what information you'd like to have displayed below. Please note that public requests currently write to a public repository (and we can work with you to configure the requests as needed).

Thank you for all the above! If in the future you have relevant IDs to disclose, please add them to this issue (and state the relevant affiliation information).
To confirm also - the public location for your decisions will be the same repo as the Filecoin Foundation? If somewhere different, please just share a link to where you intend those decisions to be processed.
Regarding the integration with the dashboard, I will connect you on Slack with the relevant team. Note, you do not need to use the same app as the Filecoin Foundation for signing - and if you're signing out of band you can still make use of the Registry for listing (and iterate in the public Github repo for decisioning).

Sure.

I will start with the same repo as the Filecoin Foundation, at the same time, we are developing tools for this. I will share it once it is workable.

Really appreciate!
@steven004 - just want to double check, would you like to be listed in the public Filecoin Plus Registry as a Notary? If so, could you please fill this out (or confirm that you don't want this) and we can move forward with the final step of confirmation?
