ORIGINAL POST: With the recent passage of HCIP-04 regarding Campaign Rules and Guidelines (Snapshot), the debate now must center around setting the parameters for rule #7 within the proposal: “A candidate CANNOT run for a governor position with an account/name used for an existing Harmony project (i.e. should Defi Kingdoms be allowed to run as a candidate? This means a personal account should be used). If this annex is approved for addition to the charter, there will need to be an additional community discussion on talk.harmony.one to define the parameters of which accounts fall under this category. Upon completion of that discussion, there will be another snapshot vote to approve those parameters. This rule will be excluded from this annex, if approved, until the completion of that process.”
We will discuss this topic for 7 days. Following the discussion, we will set the parameters by way of polls in a corresponding forum post to follow the HCIP process to officially decide what constitutes a ‘Harmony Project’ thereby clarifying which accounts would be prohibited from running to fill a position on the Community DAO Council. Please comment below what you feel should constitute definition as a ‘Harmony Project’ and any reasoning behind your stance.
