What does "hardening the commons" actually look like in practice? @vgr, @trent, @js, Sam Chua and I are hosting a workshop today at 3:30 to go deep into it! https://app.devcon.org/schedule/BMTVJK

6/ Possible modifications for rounds - Remove caps on allocations - Give special consideration to projects with a large number of beneficiaries - Cap projects per round - Explicitly weight the number of beneficiaries in the allocation formula

3/ We have failed to develop standards of rigor for the use of the "public goods" term. When it applies to everything, it describes nothing. “Dependency” is better for the Ethereum software ecosystem: crucial bits of infrastructure not directly maintained by an actor.
