Dispute / Audit Framework

Last updated: 2023-05-05

The person opening the dispute is referred to as ‘Claimant’ and the stakeholder against which the dispute is opened is referred to as ‘Responder'

Overview of the Dispute resolution process:

The process for filing a Dispute request is as follows:

An issue must be filed on the T&T Dispute Trackerusing the form

Although the WG prefers and strongly encourage full transparency, we understand some situations may require more discretion, so disputes can be submitted as 'anonymous'.

Once a dispute is filed, the T&T WG Lead will discuss it in the WG calls. The average time for a dispute to be resolved is two weeks based on the principles of optimistic governance but some disputes may take longer depending on the complexity and response times of the claimant and responder. The status will be trackable and updated at all times in the public dispute tracker.

Claimants are encouraged to cross-post the dispute in the T&T WG channel to bring the community’s attention to the dispute.

The claimant is requested to complete all fields including a description of the issue at hand. Notably, some specific abuse must be detailed, such as:

Supporting the dispute with substantiating evidence is highly encouraged, such as links to the relevant transaction ids on-chain, screenshots, or other evidence.

Claimants are discouraged from making personal attacks against any stakeholder when submitting details in the T&T dispute tracker and follow the Fil+ Code of Conduct.

Based on the evidence, the response to a dispute, and discussions of the situation in the T&T WG calls, some possible repercussions and outcomes may include but are not limited to:

Governance, Contributing and Iteration Process

Within this repository are the governing documents, selection criteria, and processes for Notaries and Root Key Holders. Areas for discussion or improvement, should be filed as issues. Please use the Modification template (for proposed improvements) or create a blank issue for topics for discussion!

After community discussion, pull requests are encouraged where open discussion can happen asynchronously via the community - please be sure to link the relevant issues to the changes in your PR. Similar to a FIP, any proposed changes must be done within the constraints of improving the Mechanisms and Operations to better meet the overarching Principles.

Please note our community governance calls will take place every other Tuesday - there are (2) calls each day to accomodate time zones. 8am PT // 1400 UTC AND 1800PT // 0000am UTC. Please see the community calendar for the accurate dates/times relative to your local timezone, follow the repo (where agenda issues will be filed), or join our Slack channel!
