Confirmed details

The framework proposes seven spending domains. Six would have institutional stewards; Open Contributions would allow direct applications without one. DReps would retain approval of stewards, allocations and treasury withdrawals. Stewards could also seek funding with disclosure and safeguards. A November 10 concept submission was tentative, not an approved funding round.

OrangeX.com Analysis

Coordination could make proposals easier to compare, but institutions assessing funding while also applying need clear conflict safeguards. Approval of a process is separate from approval of individual withdrawals. Domain budgets, review rules and actual votes are better evidence of implementation than a proposed timetable.
