Adding some historical context:
When the original dev fund discussions were happening there were 13 proposals which ended up as ZIPs 1001 to 1013. These were discussed and the community was polled on their preference. ZiP 1012 was the most popular and ZIP 1014 emerged from that which went through a number of revisions based on community feedback.
I don’t know if we need to repeat that process exactly, but I think it worked quite well so maybe a similar approach would help here. It would be good to see a number of proposals have their own threads (and become ZIPs), ranging from “remove all funding” to “keep it the same” to “increase it to 60%” etc.
Seeing as this is the 2nd halving I’d be inclined to call them ZIPs 2001, 2002 etc. but would leave that up to the ZIP editors/managers.
It seems like we have some differing opinions already in the forums so maybe we have the basis for a number of initial options already…
