lol i was taken off this cause Zino couldnt find time to interview me.

Should these selected community members be confirmed as part of the Revocations Committee? This proposal has been REJECTED by a DAO Committee Member (0xbef99f5f55cf7cdb3a70998c57061b7e1386a9b0)

Hello Community, After a nurturing discussion on this poll about the candidates proposed to integrate the first Revocations Committee, the Community flagged that the procedure to set up the initial setup should be similar to the one used to add a new DAO Committee Member. Specifically, the community should have the opportunity to interview the candidates. It's important to note that, to honor the process of votation and keep the legitimacy of the government process that we as a DAO have, we found three ways to get through this blocker. We´d love to hear your opinion regarding the decision-making. Let us know in the comments of the poll created, and we´ll be happy to discuss them in more detail. https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=19c0e070-bc5b-11ed-8c13-518b5c1940be

Should these selected community members be confirmed as part of the Revocations Committee? This proposal is now in status: FINISHED. Voting Results: * Yes 4% 213,484 VP (37 votes) * No 95% 4,442,080 VP (144 votes) * Invalid question/options 1% 11,426 VP (4 votes)

@zino I see where this is quoted but it is up for interpretation a bit based on how exactly the community poll for voting on this selection will be structured. > The Grant Support Squad interviews the candidates and makes a final selection of 5 members and 2 substitutes. For the creation of this committee and its renewals, the final selection will be presented to the community in a poll. source: https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=ce104d00-7d94-11ed-8456-a323c09ee17e I don't think there is anything wrong with the selection process as you said this was made clear, but I was under the impression we would be able to vote on candidates individually and that was the purpose of the substitutes, incase a proposed member was rejected by the community. This was the process used for the DAO committee selection process recently and I think would solve a lot of the community concern to be able to place our votes on each candidate individually instead being forced to select all or none. I also agree with what others are suggesting that a public Q&A with the candidates pre-vote would give the community much more context towards what they are voting on. Are there any notes or information the GSS can share on the selected candidates based on their interviews and why the GSS selected them aside from their self wrote applications?

Every single person that the proposal selected is a reliable, great individual. I'm talking from personal experience I have had with those members, which is why I am voting **yes**!

Can the person with 4.0M VP kindly share your reasoning for voting no? IMO when someone has so much power, I believe it should be their responsibility to let the community know why they are making a certain decision.

This is my personal opinion, It almost feels like I am forced to agree, like an ultimatum. Even though I have no problem being open or interviewed by the community and can be open to the idea.. . I do hope there is a level of moderation in this event. Either way, I do want what is best for the community. If that is what the community is in dire need of.

Hi @Canessa , Just to clarify, the community has voted on a process on how this committee should be created and how a member could be added or removed. [(here you could read the governance proposal](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=ce104d00-7d94-11ed-8456-a323c09ee17e)). So, in this stage, we are going through the process voted. Specifically: Article 3 stated: Procedure for how to create, add/remove an Accountability Committee Member To create the initial Committee- The process for creating this committee of 5 members includes three stages: I) The open application period in the forum, which took place [here 1](https://forum.decentraland.org/t/open-call-for-accountability-committee-members/17546) II) The Grant Support Squad interviews the candidates and makes a final selection of 5 members and 2 substitutes, which the Grant Support Squad has worked on in the past 3 weeks. We have interviewed 14 candidates. Based on the criteria, we have come up with this selection to be the most diverse in terms of background, Decentraland expertise, gender, professional experience, and openness to work with others collaboratively and multidisciplinary within the members who applied. III) final poll for the community to accept or decline this selection. Regarding the community received feedback, we will organize an event on Discord to introduce the potential candidates. Additionally, we could utilize Slido to allow the entire community to ask any questions they may have about the candidates' profiles. Thank you!

This is what we call a real DCL community !!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Hello community, I am very happy to answer any questions you may have whether on an individual basis or in a group setting. I would like to see a consensus throughout the entire community that those who have been vetted by the GSS committee are the best selections for this particular position.

Yeah I mean it would probably make the most sense if it was a public forum. [quote="Canessa, post:22, topic:18203, full:true"] It sounds like they may have been interviewed internally already, if I missed that, it’s my oversight. [/quote] We have.

Thank you @Canessa for speaking out as well!

I like the idea of learning more about these community members before proceeding further. I know most of them through parties and hanging out, but that's not the same thing as knowing them on a professional level. In the real world you have to get interviewed for a job before you get the job, so why would it be any different here? I think setting a baseline standard that we interview *every* candidates for *every* position no matter how big or small will protect us in the long run.

hey zino. Are these candidates finalized?

Hi @yemel Yes! It could be a good idea to organize an event on Discord where we can introduce the potential candidates. We could also utilize Slido to allow the entire community to ask questions about their profiles. Let´s do it 🙌

Thank you @yemel for trying to correct this for the community and for trying to provide transparency.

Could you do an open call inviting all the proposed committee members? I believe it would be beneficial for the community to have the chance to get to know the members before the DRAFT proposal is voted.

Here is the Governance proposal: https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=ce104d00-7d94-11ed-8456-a323c09ee17e

[quote="dao, post:1, topic:18203"] The Grant Support Squad interviews the candidates and makes a final selection of 5 members and 2 substitutes [/quote] Can you please link the proposal where this was approved?

Hi Palewin of Grant Support Squad, Are you saying we can only agree to accept the people you proposed here in this voting proposal? Or we will be able to vote decentralized/individually/ per person just as the facilitation squad did with the execution of their proposal? The community agreed on a Decentralized voting process and worked so hard for it. Why does the GSS want to undo what we all agreed on? For example: Later if someones grant gets revocated, they will say the Grant Support Squad put their own people inside to execute their own agenda. I honestly feel it’s best to let the community vote and take on that responsibility and we need more room for transparency. There was nothing voted on with these individuals and each person and situation is case by case.

Hello everyone, as part of the GSS team, I want to tell you that we are doing our best to get this committee up and running. If the process is getting long it's because of the back and forth that I mentioned before. I agree about what it's being said about decentralization and democracy (that's why the selection is based on the process the community voted on), and we have to be aware that the DAO is creating its processes, many things are new, and it's clear that we are human and can be wrong. This is precisely why the creation of this committee is very important. In relation to the pre-elected members, I want to clarify, again, that the selection was based on the process the community voted on and that, among the people nominated, we put those names who we thought would be a better fit (in fact, you can see the [first draft proposal](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=fca083a0-595a-11ed-be45-c5d5549af004) in which we called the first members to constitute the committee and you can see that the proposed members are others). Of course we are open to modify what is necessary based on what the community requires. Thanks for the comments,

I think adding these members to start is okay, there was an open call period for anyone to apply and someone needs to do the job of prescreening the candidates for presenting to the community in a vote like we are doing here. I do not however like how were are being forced to choose all or nothing. While I am supportive of most of the candidates suggested there is one I have concerns about their credibility based on prior projects and do not feel comfortable voting yes while this person is in the line up. It would be nice to split this up into 5 separate proposals for each candidate and then proceed to the substitutes if any are voted down.

They are being voted into, you are free to vote no.
