Description

https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1775

People want the Decentralized Networks (DN) program to be more fair and clear.
They ask for simple rules that everyone can understand.
The committee making decisions should be open about who they are.
There should be a way to ask questions or challenge decisions.
New and small operators should have a better chance to join.
After each group is chosen, results should be shared publicly.
Changes should happen within 30 to 60 days.
This helps build trust in the program.

W3F is a sovereign organization, and I don't think the Wish for Change track applies to this situation. I would take one step further and say that this is an inappropriate attempt to interfere with W3F's internal processes, an unfortunate way to escalate this issue. There are a lot better ways to engage with the community and operators if the proposer wants to secure their spot in better relationships. Nay.

Agree with helikon's opinion.

This is a bad use of the WFC track; we think this is just worth a forum post/discussion. We also agree with Helikon that W3F is a sovereign company with its own decision-making process and that's how it should stay.
