我上一个帖子介绍了一个提案，旨在创建一个去中心化的社区治理系统。本文我将进一步扩展这些想法，同时，我还会加入EOS社区给我的一些反馈。
首先，这有助于区别现有的EOS社区和新提出的EOS治理社区。EOS社区是EOS治理社区的一个超集。该治理社区现在的代号是伊甸操作系统（Eden Operating System，EOS）。伊甸是一个自动化的流程，智能合约会帮它识别社区成员和他们获得的预算。
语言和时区障碍
任何一个社区面临的最大的问题就是如何促进交流。如果没有明确的交流，两群人就很容易互不信任。更大的EOS社区的核心开发者主要来自西方，而大部分用户则在东方（中国）。同样还有很重要的，但规模比较小的，西班牙语社区。
我的新作《更平等的动物：真正民主的微妙艺术》中提到一个原则：民主国家应该是地理位置划分区域，支持更大的地方自治，并防止地方因为无法有效地组织“脱离”活动而导致的暴政。如果美国每个郡（约3000人）都能选出一个代表，国家是以郡为基础的民主国家，而不是一个有3亿人口的民主国家，那么美国人会有更大的权力。这种民主国家的民主会保护各个部分的独立，同时还能赋予人民权力。
因此我提议，EOS应该被构建成民主团体的民主社区。这样，我们就会有两个独立的社区，每个社区能够获得50%的预算。这就像给美国每个州平均分配新印的美金，这样，就能实现经济力量的民主共享了。
中国人想要的和需要的可能和英语国家的不同，但我们依然可以不考虑对方的内部政治形势而共存。如果某个决定会影响整个区块链（如硬分叉和系统合约升级），那么双方领导人必须要先获得一致，才能做这个决定。只要领导人才需要考虑和另一个社区的领导人谈判的问题。
此外，本地的英语和中国社区成员能更好地向本地领导人追责。
伊甸合约
伊甸合约允许任何人成立自己的社区。我会成立一个社区，我想和中国社区合作，找到一个创立中国社区的人。等这些社区达到1000成员的底线、完成了自己第一次选举之后，EOS超级节点会投票把通胀的0.125%分配给每个社区。
其它社区的成员也可以自由地成立自己的社区。只要这些社区的规模达到英语和中文社区的差不多大小，那么英语和中文社区就会投票把这些社区带到更大的EOS社区中。
成为成员
要成为成员，你必须获得三名现有成员的邀请和批准，交一笔相当于三小时最低工资的会费（目前大约10EOS），并通过随机选择的五名官员审核。
这是一个“高”门槛，但这是好事。作为成员，你会获得经济实力，我们也希望您能和其它成员实时视频聊天，同时履行责任，帮助治理区块链。如果你连赚三小时最低工资的时间都抽不出来，那你怎么会有时间参加治理呢？
更大的EOS社区不会参与治理，但放弃治理、允许更愿意花钱建设社区的成员设置路线，这本身会让它获益。
也有人担心， “审核”受邀的成员可能会让官员花费太多时间。但是我觉得这不是问题，假设社区增长达到最大值（每年每人邀请20人），这也就意味着官员每周最多只要批准4个人。如果他们能获得例子中的预算，这就意味着他们每次验证将获得60美金，而每个验证只要花十分钟。又因为增长率很可能低得多，这些人不会压力太大，而且他们也报酬颇多。
驱逐成员
如果社区成员被发现违反社区行为规范，他们会被驱逐。但驱逐之前，指控他人有违规行为的当事人应该先支付保证金。保证金必须足够支付驱逐指控不通过的情况下的审判成本、也要因此保证减少错误指控的可能。
一旦当事人发起指控并提交保证金，社区会随机召集五名官员审阅案件。这就可能包括安排zoom会议，让双方有机会自我辩护。如果这五个官员中有三名支持驱逐，那么指控的当事人将获得两倍保证金。同时，我们也会调查谁邀请/背书了被驱逐人。如果我们发现他们邀请傀儡加入，那么我们会发起新指控，流程继续。
也有人担心驱逐流程会消耗官员太多时间。我觉得考虑到一开始加入就有很多要求，这种情况不大会发生。
为伊甸提供资金支持
我自己会资助伊甸MVP的开发，我聘请了一个小团队，同时要求，如果伊甸被社区采用，官员要报销我的支出。这是靠诚信系统完成的，这就是说，社区可能选出来的官员不给我报销。
因为我提议伊甸分成英语和中文社区，我自己就不可能两边都参与。我会和其他人一样参与，如果我赢得选举，那就意味着大家的共识是要给我报销。
启动社区
社区刚开始的时候，创始人对邀请和驱逐成员有完全控制权，直到创始人决定召开第一次选举。这就是说，社区可以不需要太多开销就获得一些初始的牵引力，它还意味着在正式上链之前，它已经可以在链下组织。
发展路线图
未来几周，我会发布升级的设计文件和伊甸智能合约的具体规范。我的大部分开发团队将在4月15日左右开始工作。同时，我会寻找有构建智能合约接口经验的社区成员，可能会和Anchor团队合作，把治理过程集成到他们的钱包中。
Clarion最终会成为去中心化交流平台，促进伊甸治理的相关讨论和社区建设。
原文/Original：
In my prior post 83 I introduced a proposal for creating a decentralized community governance system. This post will expand upon those ideas further and incorporate feedback from the EOS community.
To begin with it will be helpful to make a distinction between the existing EOS community and this new EOS governance community. The EOS community is a superset of the EOS governance community. The current code-name for the governance community is Eden Operating System (EOS). Eden is a process automated by smart contracts for identifying who is a member of a community and how much budget they are allocated.
The Language and Time Zone Barrier
One of the biggest challenges of any community is facilitating communication. Absent clear communication it is easy for two groups of people to distrust one another. The broader EOS community is composed of core developers in the West and a majority of users in the East (China). There are also important, but smaller, communities that speak Spanish.
One of the principles from my book, “More Equal Animals – The subtle art of true democracy” 18, is that democracies should be grouped geographically to support greater local autonomy and protect against tyranny created by the inability to effectively organize a secession movement. The people of the United States would have more power and representation if every county (~3000) elected one representative and the country acted as a democracy of counties instead of a democracy of 300 million people. The democracy of democracies approach protects the independence of the parts and empowers the people.
I therefore propose that EOS be set up as a democracy of democracies. In this case, there would be two independent communities each of which is allocated 50% of the budget. This would be like giving each state in the united states an equal share of the new dollars that are created. The result it democratic sharing of economic power.
The needs and wants of the Chinese people might be different than the needs and wants of the English speaking people, but we can coexist without worrying about the internal politics of the other side. Any time a decision needs to be made that impacts the entire blockchain (such as hard forks and system contract upgrades) then the leaders of the two communities would have to reach unanimous agreement. It is only the leaders that would need to worry about negotiating with the other community.
Furthermore, the local English and Chinese community members would be in a better position to hold their local leaders accountable.
Eden Contract
The Eden contract would allow anyone to start their own community. I would start one community and I would work with the Chinese community to identify someone to start a Chinese community. Once these communities reach a threshold of 1000 members and have completed their first election, then the EOS block producers could vote on allocating 0.125% inflation to each community.
People from other countries speaking other languages would be free to start their own communities. When those communities reach a similar size to the English and Chinese then the English and Chinese can vote to bring those communities into the broader EOS community.
Becoming a Member
To become a member you must have an invitation and approval of 3 existing members, pay a membership due of approximately 3 hours of minimum wage (currently about 10 EOS), and be vetted by one of 5 randomly selected elected officials.
This is a “high” threshold and that is a good thing. As a member you are being given a lot of economic power and are expected to participate in live video chats with other members while fulfilling your duty to help govern the blockchain. If you are unable to find the time to earn the 3 hours of minimum wage required then how will you have the time to participate in governance?
The broader EOS community, which is not participating in governance, would benefit from abstaining from governance and allowing those more committed to funding the building of the community to set the direction.
There was some concern about the elected officials having too much work to “vet” people being invited. I believe this is a non-issue because assuming maximum growth (each person inviting 20 people per year), this would mean that the elected positions would have to approve at most 4 people per week. Given the example budgets, this would mean they are paid at least $60 per validation and each validation would only take 10 minutes. Since the growth rate is likely to be substantially less, these people will not be over burdened and will be well compensated.
Evicting a Member
If a member of the community is found violating the community code of conduct then they should be removed. To remove someone a bond must be paid by the individual making the accusation of a breach of the code of conduct. This bond needs to cover the cost of the trial in the event no eviction is made and should dissuade false accusations.
After making an accusation and posting a bond, 5 randomly selected elected officials are called to review the case. This might involve scheduling a zoom call and giving both sides an opportunity to defend themselves. If 3 of the 5 agree to evict then the individual who made the accusation gets double their bond back. At this time an investigation may be launched into the parties who invited / endorsed the member being evicted. If they are found to be inviting sock puppets then new charges might be filed and the process would continue.
There was some concern that the evection process could swamp the elected officials. I think this is unlikely given the stringent requirements of becoming a member in the first place.
Funding Development of Eden
I will personally fund development of the Eden MVP by hiring a small team with the request that if adopted by the community that the elected officials reimburse me for the costs. This will be done on the honor system, which means that the community could elect people that choose not to reimburse me.
Since I am proposing that Eden be split into English and Chinese communities it will not be possible for me to be part of both. I will participate like everyone else and if I win then that would imply consensus to reimburse me.
Bootstrapping the Community
When a community is first created, the founder will have complete control over inviting and evicting members until the founder decides to hold the first election. This means that a community can get some initial traction without a lot of overhead and that it can start to organize off chain before being formalized on chain.
Development Roadmap
Over the course of the next couple of weeks I will be publishing updated design documents and specifications for the Eden smart contract. Most of my development team will start around April 15th. In the mean time I will be looking for community members with experience building interfaces for the smart contract, perhaps working with the Anchor team to integrate the governance process into their wallet.
Clarion will eventually become the decentralized communication platform that facilitates Eden governance discussions and community building.
