[Proposal to the House of Merit budget / House of Merit supported NDC Public Goods Work Group creation] GoodWorks - a new NDC Public Goods Work Group

Report April:

Continued developing Community Voice. But with the news that NDC is shutting down we had to change priorities from main focus on developing to instead mainly focus on feature design, developing implementation plans and collecting quotes for the last and final budget request in May.

Development Activity:
Development continued Community Voice, with a focus on the impending migration from GovForum to Community Voice.

  • Refined the extract / transform / load script
  • Estimated storage required for all of GovForum and associated cost to 2,200 Near
  • Developed UI/UX proposal for target state
  • Planned migration path and schedule for shutting down GovForum in orderly way
  • Weekly meetings with stakeholders (including Dacha, Kaz, Silkking, Mr Potato, etc)
  • Backlog can be found here: Gov Forum Migration · GitHub

Features Design & Quotes:
We held interviews with several community members and stakeholders to collect and prioritize ideas for future development and maintenance of the in-scope apps, followed by design discussions, documenting design specs, and collecting quotes from community devs.

  • Interviews with 8-10 stakeholders, getting their input on required feature improvements
  • Created polls on GoodWorks telegram channel for 4 of the in-scope apps
  • Preliminary design sessions with community devs
  • Documented Design Specs
  • Requested quotes from various dev teams
  • Amalgamated quotes, created full budget and documented May request

Features design & quotes focused on these public good apps

  • Community SBTs
  • EasyPoll
  • Community Voice
  • Endorsements & Kudos
  • I-Am-Human

Notes:

  • We were not able to meaningfully work on NearTasks, and will return the budget allocated to this. The way we do this is by reducing the May budget by the same amount.
  • We also discovered that one item had been budgeted both in April and in May budget, so we reduced the May amount for this item to $0.
  • Community Voice was treated separate from GoodWorks in April. But for the May budget we will make a joint request through GoodWorks.
