[Temp Check]: Ideas, get feedback on your idea before creating a formal proposal.


Add the proposal number to Proposals executed on-chain
Public Assembly Proposal #1 = [PAP1]

Things that could be cool but have yet to be defined:

Request for Proposal - Requests made from token holders
Request for Beta testers - Requests made from Development / Engineering groups
Request for Comments / Feedback - Needing next actionable steps or Requests made from those making proposal or seeking a delegation
Request for Initiative/Subgroups: ??

the time has come !!

Im about to go ham on this if that’s cool with everyone— if anyone knows where to update the stylesheet?

I actually am realizing it’s autogenerated based off of the settings in the discourse currently, I think it would be more useful if discourse made it modular for teams that want to edit the page. I was disappointed when I saw there was no edits, but i can hit up the person that made this sheet.

It was a plugin idea that someone open sourced and got Discourse to merge it to be one of their core components
