Purpose


Steering Committee is the group of people from the D_D that will help the Fundraising Operators to focus down on details regarding the creation of the agreement between D_D and its spin-off projects. Such a group is needed because someone from the D_D need to decide on the direction with some of the expectations and rules that will be put in place in the agreement and Fundraising Operators can not decide by themselves on those details.

For any discussion on this topic please go to Discord channel fundraising-operators.
