Hey Luke! That’s been quite an efficient flight I’d say. Thanks for thinking out of the box!
For a non-developer it’s hard to understand the technical part of it, but I clearly see the structural benefits of such a system. The past days have proven that there’s a strong need for more decentralization in any corner of this blockchain, so it’s great to see the direction it all takes now. I’ll be happy to contribute in the way I can.
Would you mind elaborating a bit more on the concept of worker proposals? Could these proposals include any type of task within the ecosystem - not only development, for instance?
Again, thanks for your contribution to the new Steem :-)

Thanks Marley. Yes, anything benefiting the community. Click on the spreadsheet image here to see the types of things approved by eosDAC so far: https://eosdac.io/active-worker-proposals/
Thank you! That's exactly how i imagined it to be - concrete tasks from all types of areas. Great to see such structures already exist and apparently function well.
So: when on Steem? :-)
Unfortunately Steem doesn't have smart contract support. I think Dan wanted to build them here, but Ned wasn't a fan. Just a theory, anyway.
That said, maybe in the future all that functionality (custodian voting, worker proposals, etc) might be built at a core blockchain level. I think other things like RocksDB and SMTs might be more important though.
Interesting! Thanks for clarifying this :)
I’ll be reaching out to you via dm since I’d like to get your feedback on an idea I’m working on currently.
