I’d like to propose “dynamic referenda tracks” in Kusama(ability to add and edit tracks without runtime upgrades) and following that it’s in my personal roadmap to propose that we should be able to edit the preimage during preparation period to adapt a proposal based on received feedback.
Idea from Suggestions for improving governance as a process
- The preparation time for larger spending tracks could be extended to a mandatory period of 7 days on Kusama and perhaps 14 on Polkadot. This would show on-chain intent and allow for discussion. Considering that votes are allowed during preparation it could also afford early signalling. We could in kind reduce some proportional voting time for the decision phase.
- During the preparation phase, the proposer should be able to change spending tracks and/or adjust the spend amount lending on community feedback. With either change, existing votes should be cleared. Track/spend changes can be limited to once every x blocks to prevent abuses.
