Summary of KR Workflow

1. KR comes in from a public-facing form (e.g. Google, Tally or built into Discord using embeds).

   • Submit a Knowledge Request (KR)
     • Require submitter to join Discord & remit non-refundable deposit before submitting
       • When I worked with LexDAO they just said to send funds to the multi-sig before I submitted their Google form. Not sure if they've updated how they receive payments but that seems easiest/fastest. An alternate option would be that Ops fields the response then sends an invoice using Request.Finance prior to subDAO routing. That would reduce chances of people (e.g. non crypto natives submitting a KR) messing up or even simply being deterred, although it does create more work internally & slow down the submission process.

2. Notion gets updated by Zapier bot

   • Knowledge Request Tracker

3. Zapier bot sends a notification to ping the requested subDAO(s) in Discord about the new KR. Could also ping the MedicoLegal as well/instead to provide some oversight, transparency, accountability & routing support for subDAOs. → [MedicoLegal Chat](https://meddao.notion.site/MedicoLegal-Chat-fbe6fe47b1a94cc4b12a82fbfce2e161) 1.

4. DeWork issues a task/bounty on-chain

5. SubDAOs respond by updating Knowledge Request Tracker to claim KR

6. Sub-tasks are added to DeWork bounty until the subDAO submits it for final review

   • Auto-syncs with Knowledge Request Tracker

7. MedicoLegal WG and submitter of the KR either approve/deny the submission

8. Bounty is paid out on-chain to the subDAO, or directly to contributor(s), depending on the subDAOs governance.

9. If bounty is paid directly to the subDAO, they could distribute the amount via Coordinape or use some internal accounting to allocate remuneration to individual contributors.

@flowscience What do you know about https://dework.xyz/

• I think this can be the MVP for our Knowledge Request protocol and also to coordinate and incentivize work within our DAO
• Consideration being USDC, our DAOs governance token or a separate sweat equity token created using Sporos

That's a fantastic idea. It's gotten pretty popular and I've used it on a variety of teams. It makes sense to track KRs with a kanban style workflow and having an on-chain MVP would be ideal. Issuing KRs as bounties also makes sense and each subDAO can link DeWork to a subDAO-specific Coordinape round so contributors can have a monthly/seasonal peer-reward system integrated with the record of tasks completed for KRs they responded to. DeWork has a great discord bot too.

DeWork also integrates with Notion & Github so tasks can be issued directly from those platforms.
