Working Docs:
Governance GitBook should aim to cover and document experiments in governance across sNET . Should probably include documentation of research as well, such as Strategy Guild's research into decision making methods.
[rationale] There is a difference between internal and external. Also background research leads to governance experimentation so it's good to include it

We congratulated Andre on really useful updates to the Meeting Summary tool: to make it clearer what has and has not been archived; addition of new templates for Town Halls and one-off meetings; and ability for workgroups to manage action items more smoothly from within the tool itself

Congratulations to Slate for meeting publicity, which seems to have brought a couple of new people to the meeting. Note there was an issue because Slate didn't have rights to post embedded links in Discord - now fixed for Archives Workgroup channel, but might need correcting for a couple more channels
[rationale] Some new people are in today's meeting because they are doing bounties, but a couple are here because they saw the publicity, which is great.

Transcript: Link
Don't try to improve budget fitting for this quarter as AGIX price went up and there is enough budget now
Consider already spent rewards based on previous exchange rates
Discussed what core and project costs of workgroups are. Voted on minimum cap on base costs, but decided its not the way to go.
Discussed a limit for maximum amount per workgroup, but need to revisit this in next meetings
Discussed how some workgroups can afford to cut core costs while others can't, as their main functions are core activities, like Treaury Guild
We should try to have some rules and processes to enforce for next quarter.
Undo budget cuts that were done and see if we can cover all workgroups in next meeting
[rationale] Price of AGIX went up, so there might be enough budget to cover all workgroups
