A basic explanation of the DAO's voting process and timeline is as follows: -* A new relay chain referendum is created. -* The bot fetches the referendum details and creates a matching internal referendum in a Discord. -* The bot creates a discussion topic -* Members discuss the referendum details. For some referenda, we also reach out to proposers for a call. -* Members submit their votes on the internal referendum alongside their feedback. -* The bot submits an on-chain vote on day 7 (first vote) and day 20 (second vote, if changed), the final day (if changed), and during confirmation (again, if changed). -* [planned] The bot collects all member feedback and generates a summary of comments using a ChatGPT (or similar) API, submitted to Subsquare or Polkassembly. +- A new relay chain referendum is created. + +- The bot fetches the referendum details and creates a matching internal + referendum in a Discord. + +- The bot creates a discussion topic + +- Members discuss the referendum details.
