Please read the threads about governance in the DAO: "Simplifying Governance" and "The State of Developer DAO" (both in ops category).
The DAO Governance Tooling Project Team is investigating delegation and governance tool suites in order to facilitate those functions of the DAO. More information will be released in the coming weeks.
A number of wiki pages about the committee and our External Delegation process have been published, including the committee roster, vote history, and so on. Check them out!

Delegation and discussion of potential tool suites require assistance. Please contact Trai.

Community
Project Updates / Announcements
P3rks are making a comeback after being dormant for two months. P3rks reward people with membership. See this Notion docs for context. Everyone is welcome to join the discussion about the new workflow of P3rks.
Long-term discussion on the future format of DAO projects is ongoing. Some suggested changes includes:
DAO projects to have their own Discord servers where members can sync, as only a small amount of projects will stay in the DAO to promote dev stuff.
Quick progress display and contact channel to be created for members to easily find projects, contributors/leads etc.
