Phase 2: PIP Draft Stage

Once an idea has received positive feedback, authors develop a comprehensive draft following the standard PIP template. This draft undergoes community review and council revision.

The pip-draft forum is where you post your PIP Draft after passing the temperature check (25 👍). A PIP Draft is a fully structured proposal ready for formal review.

Before You Post,

Your draft should:

• Follow the official PIP structure.

• Be final and vote-ready—This draft should be exactly as you want it to appear on the governance platform.

• Clearly explain your proposal—Many voters may not have followed prior discussions. Ensure your draft is self-contained and compelling.

• Reserve an Additional Post—Immediately after posting your draft, reserve an additional post by replying to your initial draft. This extra space ensures you can add supplementary edits or clarifications if your draft exceeds Discord’s maximum post length.

Review & Approval Process,

Council Review,

The Council reviews your draft to ensure it:

• Follows the PIP format and structure.

• Meets technical feasibility and DAO governance requirements.

If revisions are needed, the Council will provide clear, rule-based feedback to help you refine your draft.

Foundation Review,

After your draft passes the Council review, it will move to the Foundation for a final review. The Star Atlas Foundation evaluates:

• Legal and regulatory risks.,

• Feasibility and impact on the Star Atlas ecosystem.,

The Foundation may approve, request revisions, or reject the proposal with public reasoning.
