+1 > I love the idea of a Lunch Box, infact would love to see a Lunch Box head submitted by some of the artists we have in nouns. This proposal feels scantly put together and a bit missing some details to give a broader take on feeding the less fortunate and their pets. > > I would love to see a more deep solution to this problem. For example at the Nouns School Project - the biggest challenge of kids not attending school is the lack of Lunch at school... the steps we are taking to solve this entail more community driven approach where we engage the local government, parents and also the community. > > There is nothing wrong with feeding someone who unfortunately can't feed themselves, but there is a saying that its better to teach a man how to catch a fish than giving him the fish. Want to encourage the proposers here to look at a much more sustainable way of pushing this program such a community gardens, and local government support.

should-nouns-dao-explore-escrowed-milestones?@0x2117...E42a Pending feedback, the initial strategy to trigger release is to use oSnap and Snapshot to handle this. Votes would be offchain but we can customize the voting strategies to the community's liking. If a fully onchain option is desired we can explore the costs and trade-offs. oSnap relies on a fallback/security council but otherwise is executed without that group. > I know ive been asking for something like this for quite sometime and have given it a decent amount of brainpower. Some props need more funding upfront vs tiered delivery of funds. So having the option would be great but understand if that just adds complexity for no reason. > > For the release of funds it should reach consensus before releasing funds, and consensus should be based on Nouners and not multisig or trusted individuals that removes the whole purpose of it. The consensus should also be 1 vote per voting block so a user is not able to pass consensus just because they have a ton of nouns. Propdates like you said would need to be updated and this mode of consensus should also be applicable to marking a prop as "delivered/complete" the proposer or anyone can mark it as complete all deliverables are delivered and we should reach a quorum to really mark something as complete. This data should live onchain and we can do with EAS or something similar to that. > > The reason for this is we should be able to see a proposer and how many fully completed props they have delivered and they should have that title/data onchain imo. Happy to chat about it more.

# Words of Web3 Glossary - Take 2 ## Abstract Given how rapidly the web3 industry advances, and given how much of the educational content available to new users constitutes marketing content, there is an outstanding need for credibly neutral educational content for users of various languages and technical literacies to learn about this technology. To this end, Education DAO has compiled a multilingual glossary of technical terms pertaining to web3 and other decentralized technologies, with the intention of maintaining this glossary in a community-led manner. This glossary, named Words of Web3, is built as a public good in the spirit of credible neutrality. It is open-source, free to access, and does not depend on any underlying revenue model or vest interest aside from the provision of sound educational content. This glossary marks the beginning of a high-quality and canonical source of terminological truth, to address the needs not only of new users seeking to learn about this technology, but also developers and content creators seeking consistent and unambiguous language for their documentation. Words of Web3 Github repo: [https://github.com/mapachurro/web3-glossary-website](https://github.com/mapachurro/web3-glossary-website) Words of Web3 website: [https://wordsofweb3.eth.limo/](https://wordsofweb3.eth.limo/) ### Background EducationDAO was started as a container to put the Consensys Developer Bootcamp content when the decision was made to deprecate Consensys Academy. Initially the idea was to have the community keep the repos up to date and offer the course as they like. The core team, however, decided to expand the scope of the DAO and shift the focus to not just supporting a crowd sourced course for training web3 developers in the Ethereum ecosystem, but to provide a receptacle for credibly neutral content about the overall decentralized web3 space and to start with a more direct product of a web3 glossary, as the overhead was less than that of the developer bootcamp. Being a set of web3 learners and educators, and wordsmiths, ourselves, we are very aligned with a glossary, especially a multilingual one, which supports universal global learning, and can be used by developers, documentarians, educators and learners alike. After Oliver gave [a talk at Devcon VI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP7gMn-LA5o) about terminology in web3, several audience members specifically asked for a community terminology resource, which was the seed for Words of Web3. In building EducationDAO, it is increasingly clear to us that people are not interested in Doing Web3 in product- or ecosystem-specific silos, and resources that give opinionated explanations are fragmenting discourse and tribalizing opinion. Many glossaries are not large enough, not maintained well, hard to navigate, and product specific. Many are on one page, making it difficult to collect granular metrics about terms. Words of Web3 aims to collate existing glossaries, develop a review process for entries, and partner with aligned organizations to either expand contributors, or incorporate their content. The only community managed glossary that we know is the EFs, which is ecosystem specific. The product and chain agnostic nature of our glossary not only sets it apart from most other glossaries, but it allows anyone to contribute content, so long as it follows our editorial guidelines. ### How does this initiative support public goods? Knowledge is a prime example of a public good. Users of emerging technology deserve access to sound educational content which has been created without any marketing-related ulterior motives. Moreover, this knowledge should be accessible across a variety of languages, which is why our glossary involves translating entries into over 20 languages, with the ability to add languages as needed. ### How can Public Nouns benefit from this partnership? This is a tool that any Public Nouns community members can use and contribute to\! Also, as many education programs are not getting funding, Public Nouns would stand out in this space. We would also be happy to discuss custom glossary applications for public Nouns. ### How is it non-excludable? The glossary is open-source and free to access. If protocols or companies want custom integrations of the glossary into their documentation, that could be handled as a paid engagement, but broader access to the glossary’s web app will remain free to users across various languages. ### How is it non-rivalrous? One person learning from this glossary does not prevent another from doing the same. Because the value of knowledge is virtually inexhaustible, our glossary qualifies as non-rivalrous. as protocol.land, fleek.xyz, Arweave Naming System, and more. The precise dWeb stack is still to be determined, but this transition will be gradual. The goal is to build the glossary web app in a manner resistant to deprecation and capture, such that its reliance on Education DAO’s continued funding is minimized. Consensys will be a trial user of Words of Web3, embedding glossary terms in their support and documentation site. We hope this provides sufficient initial exposure to the project to build out usership and contributors. ### How is it being maintained? Currently, the glossary is being maintained by Oliver, our lead terminologist and internationalization specialist. We plan to have a submission review schedule for user submitted terms/definitions/changes. Our scraper will run on a regular schedule which will have its own review process. We will also set up a glossary PM through our Hats tree. ### What is the on-chain component? Firstly, Words of Web3 is being hosted on IPFS via Fleek. We would like to move the repository over to Protocol.land, or some equivalent once we are ready to make the repo public. Secondly, we would like to enable contributors to receive remuneration for their contributions in an on-chain fashion that could be in the form of a reputation marker and currency. We are exploring using [Seed Protocol](https://seedprotocol.io/sdk/getting-started) for our attestation mechanism. In the terminology world, reputation markers on forums is a clear signal of expertise and we want to ensure that reputation based signaling in this field is bridged over to the web3 terminology environment. This can take the form of attestations, in some combination of EAS, querying, and internal curation, which is on our roadmap for development. ### Why does it need funding right now? We need funding now to get it across the line to MVP. Our developer has built out most of the backend required, but his skill set does not include front end and UI/UX capabilities. Additionally, the proliferation of a multilayer/multichain ecosystem has increased the burden on us all to understand with specificity jargon and terminology to safely and successfully DO THE THING. The value of credibly neutral canonical terminology cannot be understated. ### Impact The primary goal of this glossary is to enable individuals around the world to better understand this technology. This impact would be achieved primarily through multiple modes of user engagement, whether it be a user simply reading the glossary, a developer using the glossary to inform their technical documentation, or a content creator referencing the glossary for canonical definitions. In all cases, the result is the delivery of reliable technical information to users. To measure impact by end of Q1 2025, we plan to: * Test the implementation of the glossary by partnering with Consensys’ Support and Customer Support docs teams, which will use the glossary as a reference in their docs. * Track user engagement by term, length of time spent on the website, location of user, language, and number of unique users. The format of our glossary allows for this, unlike most other glossaries, which are simply a single word list. * We aim to have the content submission process ready by the beginning of Q1 2025 and would like to have at least 50 terms contributed by the end of Q1 2025 through community submission. ### Deliverables We have already built most of the backend, but there are various other aspects this grant funding would enable us to complete. Most importantly, this grant would fund the last mile of our MVP development process, allowing us to take the glossary web app to market. As for what we have in mind when we aim for an MVP, we simply mean a web interface which can be effectively navigated by users who wish to browse and cite the glossary, with existing backend functionality. We expect this to take until the end of Q1 2025\. Beyond this, our roadmap involves other features, such as peer-to-peer storage of glossary content (e.g. Arweave), community submissions of new terms, translations, and resources to the glossary, and creation of an API for glossary content allowing API consumers to embed glossary terms directly in their content (for a fee, ideally). While we feel confident that this funding would enable us to ship an MVP, the completion of these later features might require more work. ### Feedback loop Once the glossary’s web app is public, we will be better able to engage with our target audience of end users, developers, and content creators. Even before we have the infrastructure for programmatic community contributions to the glossary, we can still facilitate submissions in a more manual fashion using pull requests. As for the long-term prospects of this glossary, we aim to build it in such a way that maximizes preservation and minimizes overhead, using a variety of decentralized web technologies such ### Recipient address 0x1526360946a692284e50c9E887F18e9b3E52E467 (education-dao.eth, EOA) ### Budget #### Amount in ETH 3 ETH Given a 3 ETH grant, we will spend it as follows, subject to unforeseen operational circumstances: - 1 ETH for retroactive compensation for previous dev work. - 1 ETH for continued part-time dev work to bring the glossary to an MVP. - 0.5 ETH for part-time project management to see the project through to MVP. - 0.5 ETH for a contract with a UI/UX developer, to take the MVP and create an attractive and user-friendly web interface for our intended audiences (end users ### Team description - Oliver Renwick, developer, translator, terminologist - [Twitter](https://x.com/mapachurro), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/mapachurro), [2023 ETH Bogota talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP7gMn-LA5o) - Lead technical writer and internationalization lead at Consensys Spanish\<\>English interpreter and translator for 12 years in the medical, community, and legal fields; Full stack developer - Elizabeth Cusma, project manager, translator, partnership lead - [Twitter](https://x.com/elizabethcusma), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/lizzybeth) - Co-Director at EducationDAO; Spanish\<\>English translator in community and legal fields for 10 years; Program Director and Translation Manager at immigrant integration non-profits for 5 years; community organizer. - [Clinamenic](https://www.clinamenic.com/), advisor - [Twitter](https://x.com/clinamenic), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/clinamenic) - Co-founder at JournoDAO - Opeyemi Stephen, Software Engr, Technical Writer, Ecosystem Builder - [Twitter](https://x.com/devVGBG) - Consensys, Hyperbolic, FUEL, Education DAO

# A DEAI Tracker: Ecosystems Flourish with Diversity (Re-submission) Created by ![Si _3_](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HkQ_NdsXyx.png) # **TLDR** [SI<3>](https://www.si3.space/) is an organization focused on driving accessibility, collaboration and diversity in Web3. With Public Noun’s support, we are wanting to create a diversity tracker with the aim of collecting data in Web3 funding (and beyond). We will be introducing this tracker as a free public good for the Web3 industry, where we will begin with the grants space to understand what % of funding is going to diverse and underrepresented groups. Data collection is a key stepping off point for improving the % of funding going towards diverse demographics. A [Web3 Grants study](https://nftnow.com/news/researchers-analyze-over-1-billion-in-web3-grants-heres-what-they-found/) in 2023 analyzed 13 grant programs with a cumulative of $1 billion in grant funding. Due to the large market size of Web3 grants and potential for impact on early stage organizations, we believe it is critical that underrepresented groups have equitable opportunities for financial inclusion. During the period of 2022-2023, [6.5% of VC funding in Web3](https://cointelegraph.com/news/web3-vc-funding-gender-disparity-report) went to women-led organizations. We believe we can’t create a successful new economy by reproducing the same demographics holding and allocating wealth, power, and decision-making as in our present-day default economy. With Public Nouns support, we will be able to produce our DEAI (Diversity, Equity, Accessibility and Inclusion) tracker and legal framework to introduce to grant program operators. Our aim is to create this framework and tool as an industry standard for grant programs. As with any initiative wanting to move the needle in an industry, it is very important that there is data available for analysis. Gender (or any diversity data including disabilities) doesn’t exist yet in Web3 grants, as industry standards have not been implemented to-date. With Public Nouns financial support, we will have the opportunity to deliver this tracker and framework that can be implemented industry-wide, mitigating the costs and potential barriers of each organization researching this process and framework individually. < **A PUBLIC GOOD** > SI<3>’s Diversity Tracker is a public good as it is: * Free, non-rivalrous, and open for public use. * Data collected from the tracker will be made public for all to review. * This data is accessible to anyone. * This is a replicable framework that anyone can use to gather more data points from other organizations and build on top of the original research. **How the Diversity Tracker Works:** ![Diversity Tracker-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HJD5FCOBye.png) 1. SI<3> creates the Diversity, Equity, Accessibility & Inclusion survey form (currently in development). This is implemented as a page on SI<3>'s website, which also includes an introductory video on DEAI. This video will be recorded with SI<3>'s Founder Kara Howard and our Web3 Legal advisor Maria Castillo (both residing in Mexico City). 2. SI<3> introduces this tracking page to it's beta cohort of FIXX Program program participants (detailed below). This is an optional and anonymous form. SI<3> will be managing the data collection as a third party to be shared directly with grant program operators on the diversity and impact performance and analysis of their individual programs. 3. Grant program operators insert this link into their grant applications, which could be included in Typeforms, Charmverse pages, GitHubs, etc. SI<3> will include pre-written legal terms to be shared with the grant program operators, so their legal teams can easily review and utilize as they see fit, vs having to research this themselves. SI<3> will also include legal terms on their own site. *Public Noun holder and Charmverse Co-Founder Alex Yoon has shared he will be sharing our Diversity Tracker with their grant program partners to add within their grant applications* 4. Data will be reviewed after each grant round with participating partners and shared with the participating operators. Broader analysis will be done bi-annually and shared in a report, highlighting organizations that have strong representation and inclusion impact metrics. **Diversity Tracker Rollout Plan:** **January & February 2025:** Our diversity tracker is implemented and V1 of the legal framework is developed and integrated into the tracking page. This is introduced in alpha to FIXX participants for feedback, and data is collected and iterated based on this feedback. **March 2025:** V2 of the form and framework is created after initial alpha feedback, along with a legal term template for the interested partners. Impact metrics and tracking are initiated and developed into the back-end for data collection and analysis. Explainer video is recorded with Maria and Kara and included in the tracker web page. **April 2025:** Beta release of the Diversity Tracker to our FIXX participants and public announcement at our April 24th Si Her Summit. Public Nouns will be a presenting partner with a fireside chat speaking opportunity. **Value Exchange:** As a part of this proposal, we would like to offer Public Nouns: * 2 spots for Public Nouns holders active in the grants space the opportunity to attend our FIXX working group. * Logo placement on the Diversity Tracker web page * Presenting partner speaking opportunity for woman or non-binary Public Noun holder at our 2nd annual Si Her Summit on April 24th. This Presenting Partner sponsorship tier includes our advertising campaign with Ethermail and guaranteed 10k email opens, inlusion in our pre-event marketing with our 30 women in Web3 community partners, CTA inclusion in our post-event email to all registrants, edited speaker content and press release inclusion. # **About SI<3>** SI<3> is an organization focused on driving diversity, accessibility and collaboration in Web3. Our approaches in achieving these goals include unifying an ecosystem of 30+ women in Web3 communities, and collaborating with aligned organizations for partnerships and education. ![Frame2](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BkQsS_jQ1e.png) **Our focus in Web3 grants and financial inclusion:** - [Granting Access virtual event with grant program operators](https://www.linkedin.com/events/grantingaccesswithsi-37223830368930402304/theater/) - [Granting Access press link](https://dataconomy.com/2024/07/26/si3-granting-access-diversity-web3/) - [FIXX (Financial Inclusion XX Chromosomes) Working Group](https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ck9bbxh6d079u183dsavl/FIXX_SI3.pdf?rlkey=760h1pppifrkqdndwsgk39yt0&st=iuyg5299&dl=0) FIXX is a working group and DEAI (Diversity, Equity, Accessibility & Inclusion) education and collaboration program for Web3 organizations managing grant programs. In our experience as grantees, we became aware of the very low % of grant funding going to women and non-binary individuals. In response, we have initiated FIXX with experts and facilitators in DEAI topics ranging from advocacy and allyship, unconscious bias, diversity and visibility, and impact tracking and measurement. Our aim is to empower blockchains, protocols, foundations and grant distribution systems with the resources and strategies to elevate their focus on attracting and funding more diversity-led projects. **[Our website](https://www.si3.space/)** **[Our X](https://x.com/si3_ecosystem)** **Our Community Partners:** ![Frame5](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Hyfef3uBJg.png) **About the Proposers** **Kara Howard, Co-Founder of SI<3>** Kara Howard has been in Equity Research since her first job out of college.

To 0x8687ab2ff3188f961828fc2131b6150ee97bedce ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SI<3>'s DEAI (Diversity, Equity, Accessibility and Inclusion) Statement: SI<3> means saying "Yes" in Spanish to Web3, and also means visibly "seeing" Web3. In our organization, we believe that the Web in Web3 represents an interconnected ecosystem of life on this planet. In any ecosystem we see in our natural living systems, diversity is important as it: * Offers Resilience: A diverse ecosystem is better equipped to withstand environmental changes and disturbances. * Stability: A balanced ecosystem with diverse species interactions is more stable. * Adaptation: Diversity allows organisms to adapt to changing conditions through natural selection We believe we can look to how nature creates life as a model for intelligent development of our human and technology systems. As it stands today we are seeing a major lack of diversity of gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic backgrounds and geolocation represented within Web3, particularly in decision making and funding. Our aim is to create systems and programming to help open up this access gap as quickly as possible, and we believe now is the time to do so. We also know, from many research studies, that diversity increases financial performance. Data points include: Female entrepreneurs are more likely to create new jobs, help local economies, and reinvest their earnings into the health and education of their families. ('Why Women-Owned Startups Are Better.' [BCG, 2018](https://www.bcg.com/publications/2018/why-women-owned-startups-are-better-bet)) Startups founded and co-founded by women appear to be better investments. On average, women generate 78 cents of revenue per dollar invested, compared with 31 cents for men ([BCG, 2018](https://www.bcg.com/publications/2018/why-women-owned-startups-are-better-bet)) Companies with women leaders see a 21% increase in profitability ('Diversity Wins: How Inclusion Matters.' [McKinsey, 2020](https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/diversity-and-inclusion/diversity-wins-how-inclusion-matters)). DEI programs have received backlash and negative press in recent years with those that feel these programs may be enacting reverse racism, polarization, and limit opportunities for represented groups. We support inclusive DEAI practices, which establishes that awareness and unconscious bias training is needed for most individuals that are not in underrepresented groups, as they are not experiencing racism, sexism, and barriers from hundreds to thousands of years of discrimination, domination and exclusion. These wounds exist deep in the fabric, or web, of our existing society. While represented groups may not be experiencing these wounds and barriers, it is important to understand and empathize with those that are. Perhaps this period of what can feel like polarization and reverse racism and sexism is an opportunity to develop greater empathy for what people of color and women and non-binary people have experienced for hundreds of years. We do not support victim consciousness, blaming, or shaming, in our inclusion practices, and embody a pro-active approach. We take accountability within ourselves as underrepresented professionals to take action steps towards stepping out of our comfort zones, shedding limiting beliefs, speaking our voices, and claiming our spaces and value. We believe that when underrepresented groups are included, the pie becomes greater, not smaller, and opportunities for all increase and expand. We see DEAI and public goods as an aligned mindset, and look forward to Web3 paving the way for a proactive, humanitarian and inclusive way of being.

# Words of Web3 Glossary [Check out the current iteration here](https://wordsofweb3.eth.limo/english-us/index.html) ## Abstract Given how rapidly the web3 industry advances, and given how much of the educational content available to new users constitutes marketing content, there is an outstanding need for credibly neutral educational content for users of various languages and technical literacies to learn about this technology. To this end, Education DAO has [compiled a multilingual glossary](https://github.com/mapachurro/web3-glossary-website) of technical terms pertaining to web3 and other decentralized technologies, with the intention of maintaining this glossary in a community-led manner. This glossary, named Words of Web3, is built as a public good in the spirit of credible neutrality. It is open-source, free to access, and does not depend on any underlying revenue model or vest interest aside from the provision of sound educational content. This glossary marks the beginning of a high-quality and canonical source of terminological truth, to address the needs not only of new users seeking to learn about this technology, but also developers and content creators seeking consistent and unambiguous language for their documentation. ### Background EducationDAO was started as a container to put the Consensys Developer Bootcamp content when the decision was made to deprecate Consensys Academy. Initially the idea was to have the community keep the repos up to date and offer the course as they like. The core team, however, decided to expand the scope of the DAO and shift the focus to not just supporting a crowd sourced course for training web3 developers in the Ethereum ecosystem, but to provide a receptacle for credibly neutral content about the overall decentralized web3 space and to start with a more direct product of a web3 glossary, as the overhead was less than that of the developer bootcamp. Being a set of web3 learners and educators, and wordsmiths, ourselves, we are very aligned with a glossary, especially a multilingual one, which supports universal global learning, and can be used by developers, documentarians, educators and learners alike. After Oliver gave [a talk at Devcon VI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP7gMn-LA5o) about terminology in web3, several audience members specifically asked for a community terminology resource, which was the seed for Words of Web3. In building EducationDAO, it is increasingly clear to us that people are not interested in Doing Web3 in product- or ecosystem-specific silos, and resources that give opinionated explanations are fragmenting discourse and tribalizing opinion. Many glossaries are not large enough, not maintained well, hard to navigate, and product specific. Many are on one page, making it difficult to collect granular metrics about terms. Words of Web3 aims to collate existing glossaries, develop a review process for entries, and partner with aligned organizations to either expand contributors, or incorporate their content. The only community managed glossary that we know is the EFs, which is ecosystem specific. The product and chain agnostic nature of our glossary not only sets it apart from most other glossaries, but it allows anyone to contribute content, so long as it follows our editorial guidelines. ### How does this initiative support public goods? Knowledge is a prime example of a public good. Users of emerging technology deserve access to sound educational content which has been created without any marketing-related ulterior motives. Moreover, this knowledge should be accessible across a variety of languages, which is why our glossary involves translating entries into over 20 languages, with the ability to add languages as needed. ### How can Public Nouns benefit from this partnership? This is a tool that any Public Nouns community members can use and contribute to\! Also, as many education programs are not getting funding, Public Nouns would stand out in this space. We would also be happy to discuss custom glossary applications for public Nouns. ### How is it non-excludable? The glossary is open-source and free to access. If protocols or companies want custom integrations of the glossary into their documentation, that could be handled as a paid engagement, but broader access to the glossary’s web app will remain free to users across various languages. ### How is it non-rivalrous? One person learning from this glossary does not prevent another from doing the same. Because the value of knowledge is virtually inexhaustible, our glossary qualifies as non-rivalrous. as protocol.land, fleek.xyz, Arweave Naming System, and more. The precise dWeb stack is still to be determined, but this transition will be gradual. The goal is to build the glossary web app in a manner resistant to deprecation and capture, such that its reliance on Education DAO’s continued funding is minimized. Consensys will be a trial user of Words of Web3, embedding glossary terms in their support and documentation site. We hope this provides sufficient initial exposure to the project to build out usership and contributors. ### How is it being maintained? Currently, the glossary is being maintained by Oliver, our lead terminologist and internationalization specialist. We plan to have a submission review schedule for user submitted terms/definitions/changes. Our scraper will run on a regular schedule which will have its own review process. We will also set up a glossary PM through our Hats tree. ### What is the on-chain component? Firstly, Words of Web3 is being hosted on IPFS via Fleek. We would like to move the repository over to Protocol.land, or some equivalent once we are ready to make the repo public. Secondly, we would like to enable contributors to receive remuneration for their contributions in an on-chain fashion that could be in the form of a reputation marker and currency. In the terminology world, reputation markers on forums is a clear signal of expertise and we want to ensure that reputation based signaling in this field is bridged over to the web3 terminology environment. This can take the form of attestations, in some combination of EAS, querying, and internal curation, which is on our roadmap for development. ### Why does it need funding right now? We need funding now to get it across the line to MVP. Our developer has built out most of the backend required, but his skill set does not include front end and UI/UX capabilities. Additionally, the proliferation of a multilayer/multichain ecosystem has increased the burden on us all to understand with specificity jargon and terminology to safely and successfully DO THE THING. The value of credibly neutral canonical terminology cannot be understated. ### Impact The primary goal of this glossary is to enable individuals around the world to better understand this technology. This impact would be achieved primarily through multiple modes of user engagement, whether it be a user simply reading the glossary, a developer using the glossary to inform their technical documentation, or a content creator referencing the glossary for canonical definitions. In all cases, the result is the delivery of reliable technical information to users. To measure impact by end of Q1 2025, we plan to: * Test the implementation of the glossary by partnering with Consensys’ Support and Customer Support docs teams, which will use the glossary as a reference in their docs. * Track user engagement by term, length of time spent on the website, location of user, language, and number of unique users. The format of our glossary allows for this, unlike most other glossaries, which are simply a single word list. * We aim to have the content submission process ready by the beginning of Q1 2025 and would like to have at least 50 terms contributed by the end of Q1 2025 through community submission. ### Deliverables We have already built most of the backend, but there are various other aspects this grant funding would enable us to complete. Most importantly, this grant would fund the last mile of our MVP development process, allowing us to take the glossary web app to market. As for what we have in mind when we aim for an MVP, we simply mean a web interface which can be effectively navigated by users who wish to browse and cite the glossary, with existing backend functionality. We expect this to take until end of Q1 2025\. Beyond this, our roadmap involves other features, such as peer-to-peer storage of glossary content (e.g. Arweave), community submissions of new terms, translations, and resources to the glossary, and creation of an API for glossary content allowing API consumers to embed glossary terms directly in their content (for a fee, ideally). While we feel confident that this funding would enable us to ship an MVP, the completion of these later features might require more work. ### Feedback loop Once the glossary’s web app is public, we will be better able to engage with our target audience of end users, developers, and content creators. Even before we have the infrastructure for programmatic community contributions to the glossary, we can still facilitate submissions in a more manual fashion using pull requests. As for the long-term prospects of this glossary, we aim to build it in such a way that maximizes preservation and minimizes overhead, using a variety of decentralized web technologies such ### Recipient address `0x1526360946a692284e50c9E887F18e9b3E52E467` (education-dao.eth, EOA) ### Budget 5 ETH Given a 5 ETH grant, we will spend it as follows, subject to unforeseen operational circumstances: - 1 ETH for retroactive compensation for previous dev work. - 1 ETH for continued part-time dev work to bring the glossary to an MVP. - 1.25 ETH for part-time project management to see the project through to MVP. - 1.25 ETH for a contract with a UI/UX developer, to take the MVP and create an attractive and user-friendly web interface for our intended audiences (end users - 0.5 ETH for legal consultation regarding how we can approach licensing in a responsible open-source manner. ### Team description - Oliver Renwick, developer, translator, terminologist - [Twitter](https://x.com/mapachurro), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/mapachurro), [2023 ETH Bogota talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP7gMn-LA5o) - Lead technical writer and internationalization lead at Consensys Spanish\<\>English interpreter and translator for 12 years in the medical, community, and legal fields; Full stack developer - Elizabeth Cusma, project manager, translator, partnership lead - [Twitter](https://x.com/elizabethcusma), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/lizzybeth) - Co-Director at EducationDAO; Spanish\<\>English translator in community and legal fields for 10 years; Program Director and Translation Manager at an immigrant integration non-profit for 4 years (Global Cleveland) - [Clinamenic](https://www.clinamenic.com/), advisor - [Twitter](https://x.com/clinamenic), [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/clinamenic) - Co-founder at JournoDAO
