Support perpetually open votes #56

Open mitar opened 8 years ago

mitar commented 8 years ago

Instead of traditional voting where after quorum is achieved and some time passes, we close the voting, we should also support perpetually open voting, with a list of things which is "active" and which is not anymore, and which is still being voting for the first time.

We could make it so that it has to reach 60% and confidence to pass for the first time (we also have a grace period that it goes into the effect after some time of being over 60% without moving below), and then it is in effect until it falls under 40%. So that we do not have too much going in and out.

In this way people can vote something in, but if then they realize it is not working, they can cancel it.

This also improves things about strategizing. Because you can vote always.

Some votes have still end time based on its nature. For example, somebody passes an action item to build X, and after X is build, then voting can really be closed. And some, like bylaw change, could be reverted by people taking votes away (switching them).

This is useful for "standing policy" types of votes. For votes which direct some action they are probably not.
