If that fails, the committee officially agreed to implement an alternating weekly schedule (30 minutes earlier one week, 30 minutes later the next) to accommodate all time zones. * **Prioritization of Immediate Internal Work:** The committee decided not to wait for the two-month proposal voting process to conclude before starting operations. Instead, they agreed to dedicate the next week to reviewing the charter, framework, and product vision, and to begin formal discussions on updates during the next meeting. **Actions** * **Lara:** Coordinate with the MCC secretary regarding their meeting schedule to resolve the calendar clash. * **Lara:** Retrieve the updated Chair/Vice Chair responsibility document from the ISC, review it, and email it to the committee alongside the formal call for interest. * **All Members (especially new members):** Review the GMC charter, framework, and product vision documents prior to next week's call. * **Thyme:** Verify receipt of the onboarding documents email (and check the spam folder if necessary) to ensure access to the materials. * **Josi:** Email their exact Intersect Discord username to Lara so the appropriate GMC server roles can be assigned. | Topic | Discussion | Notes | | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Meeting Commencement | Lara opened the Growth and Marketing Committee (GMC) meeting once a quorum of five members was reached. She noted that while no major decisions would be made during this specific call, the agenda was officially open. | Lara thanked everyone for joining and dedicating their time. | | Proposal Feedback Review | Lara expressed gratitude to the members for filling out their sheet responses. Proposers have been highly responsive to feedback, even taking the time to reply to multiple partitioned comments due to platform character limits. | The high level of engagement demonstrates strong community commitment. | | Hydro Voting Availability | Lara shared that the hydro voting tool is now officially open on Ecclesia for voting on proposals within the intersect process (excluding direct onchain votes). | Members were encouraged to rally behind efforts that positively grow the chain. | | Commitment to Cardano Expansion | The committee discussed their shared vision of seeing Cardano grow, expand, and bring in higher daily community engagement. | A collective goal remains focused on driving positive expansion. | | Committee Call Schedule Conflicts | Lara raised a concern regarding a formal warning about widespread meeting clashes, noting that every committee call currently conflicts with at least one other committee across Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. | The GMC call currently clashes directly with the MCC. | | Global Member Availability | The committee analyzed scheduling constraints, noting that members are spread across Asian, European, and American (East Coast) time zones. Thyme asked about Mondays, but Lara noted Mondays are fully booked for her secretarial duties. | Finding a single slot that accommodates all global members remains a challenge. | | Schedule Alternation Proposal | Laura suggested starting 30 minutes earlier, which favors MCC but runs too early for US members. As a solution, Laura proposed alternating the meeting time week-by-week (30 minutes earlier one week, 30 minutes later the next). | Lara will consult with the MCC secretary to see if they can push their meeting by 30 minutes to resolve the clash before implementing the alternating backup plan. | | Chair Election Formalization | Lara announced that the upcoming elections for Chair and Vice Chair will be conducted formally through the members area instead of informally via Discord reactions. | An email will be sent out immediately after the call for members to formalize their interest. Lara is currently acting as interim chair following Tim's departure. | | Role Responsibilities Definition | Laura requested an overview of the specific tasks and implications that come with holding the Chair position. | Lara will retrieve the updated document from ISC, review it, and share it via email before declarations of interest are collected. | | Governance Framework Review | Laura advised that prior to the next cycle and before new proposals are finalized, all members—especially new ones—should review the existing charter, framework, and product vision. | Next week's call will focus on discussing questions, gaps, and potential updates to these core documents. | | Double-Round Voting Process | Yoram and Laura clarified the lifecycle of proposal approvals. It requires a two-round system: achieving a 67% threshold on the tool to move onchain, followed by a second 67% approval round onchain. | The entire approval and withdrawal timeline is expected to span up to two months. | | Access to Committee Materials | Thyme requested links to the core charter and vision documents. Lara confirmed they were sent via email to all elected members. | Members were advised to check spam folders if the email from the official growth and marketing domain was missing. | | Discord Role Updates | Lara noted that a few committee members still need to be assigned their official GMC roles on the Intersect Discord server. | Josi agreed to email their exact Discord username to Lara to complete the backend setup. | | Meeting Conclusion | With the short agenda complete and no other business raised, the team agreed to adjourn early to give members back their time to focus on document review. | The meeting was concluded swiftly by Lara, Laura, Josi, and Otávio. | --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
