Notes

Considerations

• The timing of each season is important. We may want to consider making each season a bit shorter, so that we can provide more time to encourage making an impact in these categories before the RetroFunding starts. But we also want to make sure that we don’t end the season too early before the end of the RetroFunding round, because we want to be able to promote each category with RetroPitches
• One obvious solution for this is that we can should still encourage contributions to upcoming categories well before the RetroFunding round starts. So during the Onchain Builders season we’ll encourage people to contribute to governance and dev tooling on Optimism (as well as other categories that will likely be announced in the future like education, culture, and events).
• Yes that is a good idea. The timing is still important but this strategy helps a lot too and reduces any pressure to perfect the timing.

• We could set goals or intents that we aim to accomplish for each season. We could use OPF Tree V1.1. or our Council consensus process to coordinate these
• The intents and impact metrics could be aligned with those defined in the current round of RetroFunding

During last week’s planning session we discussed how Optimism Fractal can help public goods creators earn RetroFunding and how community members can earn RetroFunding by contributing to Optimism Fractal.

We also talked more generally about how RetroFunding rewards public goods creators who make a positive impact in the Optimism Collective. For anyone who missed last week’s meeting and is interested in funding opportunities, you can listen to this discussion here.
