Objective: Refine the governance process in Decentraland by accelerating the voting period, as well as including a pre-submission feedback phase to enhance the quality of proposals.

Benefits:

• Enhances the efficiency of the governance process by speeding up the voting period while enabling thorough community engagement with a public forum for proposal improvements.
• Encourages proactive community involvement in the early stages of proposal development.
• Could potentially help to prevent or reduce the need for resubmissions.
• Detaching discussions from formal voting could potentially reduce the pressure on both voters and grant requestors during the process.

Proposal Details & Options:

1. Pre-Submission Phase (5-7 days): Introduce a feedback phase before voting for community members to refine proposals. During this phase no voting will occur, the community will be able to provide feedback on ways to improve the proposal, areas to clarify in it, and validating if there is community interest in the proposal.
2. Reduced Voting Period (7-10 days): Shorten the voting period to enhance decision-making efficiency.
3. Variable Voting Period: Implement a tier-based voting duration that aligns with the scale and impact of the proposal.
   • Tier 1-4: Up to $60,000 USD in MANA - 7 days of voting.
   • Tier 5: Up to $120,000 USD in MANA - 10 days of voting.
   • Tier 6: Up to $240,000 USD in MANA - 14 days of voting.

Implementation:

• Clearly define and integrate the reduced voting periods or variable timeline into the Decentraland governance dApp.
• Adapt existing tools already deployed in the governance dApp, such as the window periods between the submission of a tender proposal and the voting start for the pre-submission feedback period.

• Yes, implement a 5-day discussion and 10-day voting period.
• Yes, implement a 5-day discussion and 7-day voting period.
• Yes, variable timeline based on the proposal's value tier.
• No, retain the current voting period.
