yunbi proxy + bitcrab voting power are far less than being able to control the committee.
enough incentive already? why there are still 3 empty slots in the committee?
Not because there are no incentives but probably because there aren't as many people with enough knowledge that can fit that position. Or maybe shareholders think so and don't vote whoever is trying to get in.
I mean, if someone has the knowledge and cares about BitShares I assume they would go for it. I assume everyone wants to protect their investment. I might be wrong though, but there might not be enough people with the knowledge/skills needed to hold that position.
I don't know about the Chinese community but I think you're the only one on the committee? I would like to see more Chinese make part of it in hope there would be more communication and debate. As well as having more influence on Chinese exchanges since there's where most of the money seems to be.
Most of the committee is currently Asian actually.
I have been attempting to get committee members to committee to weekly meetings but I have only gotten three even reply to the idea and offer any input on their availability... rest just say nothing and so we can't get a weekly meeting going.
At present there isn't enough activity from the present members to justify any sort of pay. In addition to this I have been encouraging more transparency on discussions and I think until this becomes the regular practice there should be no money coming in for fear it will become the defacto standard to not have weekly meetings and not communicate with the community and get paid all the while.
Once we have established a working process with agenda and regular meetings with parameters of the extent of work w are undertaking.. at that point we can talk about pay. Until then we shouldn't be considering writing blank cheques to members.
My thoughts anyways.
work does not equal to meeting, in my memory you have mentioned how you and other committee members worked at weekend for the measure on how to defense the network, isn't this working?
most of the committee members has its own work and some are very busy, this also prevent them from putting more time on committee work.
maybe we can try the weekly meeting, for me normally UTC+8 time 11:00-23:00 are OK.
No.. haphazard random responds to cries of one thing or another is not a working committee.. its just a group of people reacting to things.
Community needs consistency.. needs order.. needs transparency from the committee.. at present the committee is delivering on none of that because not all members are coming to the table to do so. Perhaps it would be better for a few to start doing it to create a pull instead of a push for these things.
Sure.. we all work.. that doesn't mean the importance of being a Bitshares committee member should be diminished. If a member cannot commit the time necessary to work with the rest of it then what are they doing there? They are taking a position that could be otherwise filled by someone that could be active and building. We shouldn't sit around and wait for disaster to strike and then get organized. By then it is too late.
Chance favors the prepared.
Sure there are times we are all busy and we may not be able to be there 100% of the time.. but at least a 70% showing is a lot better than none.
Thanks for sharing a time!
Now lets cross reference the others and see if we can an agenda going!
We'll figure that out in telegram.
