Ok I think these are the newest and current versions of these proposals in the pool, minus Vote Manipulation. Apologies if I make comments that are redundant with discussion, the comments on these have gotten a bit sprawling.

One weird consequence: There will be a smaller and delayed window to claim the card in certain circumstances. If the last two assessments were less than 7 days apart, and the second most recent had a proposal more popular than the most recent, then the proposer of the most popular in the most recent will have to wait until it's been 7 days since the first assessment. I don't know if there's a clean way to fix this edge case, so we should just be aware of it. Assessment is hard to write good rules about. > --- > Title: Referenda > Adoption index: 3.0 > Author: Aris > Co-authors: I didn't spot any issues with this one. Always a fan of shortening language, and referendum is a reasonably intuitive term of art. -- nch
