As I put this together I off course agree to be a signatory

[LordDarkHelmet]

Step 1: Understand the current financial position. What are our ongoing costs, liabilities and burn rate.
Step 2: Break down future spend
Step 3: Understand Objectives. (What are we trying to accomplish, what is our mission, what are our priorities, how funds are distributed, ...)
Step 4: Come up with procedures for general practices
Step 5: Ensure proper reporting and transparency
Step 6: Continuous feedback loop to ensure we are meeting our objectives

I agree to be a signer on this. Currently, the step 1 answer is at a minimum we are ready to move a bit over 3.1mm ION into a multisig for core to control and leverage. I need to do more accounting to make sure it is not missing any and its the right amount.

[korvasc]

LordDarkHelmet I like the structure although I recommend step 3 be step 2 and vice versa. This will help make sure future spend aligns to the defined objective/s

[LordDarkHelmet]

Sometimes people get 2 and 3 confused.

Step 1 and 2 are there to create a baseline. Step 1 establishes current status and commitments, Step 2 looks at future commitments and allocations that are currently known and agreed upon.

Step 3 then examines what we would like to do. Any action in step 3 is a delta from our baseline established in step 1 and 2. Each delta needs to be reviewed and budgeted accordingly as they are changes to the established plan.

Once the action in step 3 is approved, we need to make sure we are following procedures, or come up with new ones. This is step 4.

Step 5 is about execution. Basically, we need to be transparent and report what is going on.

Step 6 is our loop, we review current progress and make changes to the plan as needed (Step 3)

Perhaps a flowchart is better than text:

[cryptolinux]

I agree to the proposal.

I find it really good that @LordDarkHelmet created some scheme on which we can elaborate, as on one side we can create everything from scratch, on other side we already have a lot of it, maybe good start for step 1 would be evaluation of what we already have.

[korvasc]

Great this issue is complete so in summary

I agreed to be a signatory
Huey agreed to be a signatory
Tor agreed to be a signatory
LordDarkHelmet agreed to be Ioncore Financial Controller

If anyone has any objections let me know within the next 24/48 hours otherwise I will close this issue
