# Discussion and Proposal process

**Forum and Discord Tags**

The Nabla community will use a combination of dedicated Forum posts and Discord tags to facilitate governance discussions:

* **General Governance**: For general discussions related to DAO governance, members can use the tag `#general-governance` on Discord and create or contribute to threads in the "Governance" category on the Forum.
* **Proposal Drafting**: For collaborating on drafting proposals, members can use the tag `#proposal-drafting` on Discord and create or contribute to threads in the "Proposal Drafting" category on the Forum.
* **Proposal Discussion**: For discussing specific proposals and providing feedback, members can use the tag `#proposal-discussion` on Discord and create or contribute to threads in the "Proposal Discussion" category on the Forum.
* **Technical Discussion**: For discussing technical aspects of proposals with the Technical Committee, members can use the tag `#technical-discussion` on Discord and create or contribute to threads in the "Technical Discussion" category on the Forum.
* **Voting Announcements**: For announcing Snapshot votes and sharing the corresponding links, members can use the tag `#voting-announcements` on Discord and create or contribute to threads in the "Voting Announcements" category on the Forum.

**Proposal Stages**

1. **Idea Discussion**: Members can share and discuss ideas in the "Governance" category on the Forum and use the `#general-governance` tag on Discord. This stage is for brainstorming and gathering community feedback on potential proposals.
2. **Proposal Drafting**: If an idea gains enough support, a Proposal Champion will create a draft in the "Proposal Drafting" category on the Forum and use the `#proposal-drafting` tag on Discord. Members can provide feedback and collaborate on refining the proposal.
3. **Proposal Discussion**: Once the draft is complete, it will be moved to the "Proposal Discussion" category on the Forum and discussed using the `#proposal-discussion` tag on Discord. Here, the community will engage in a more in-depth discussion, and the Proposal Champion will address feedback and concerns.
4. **Technical Review**: If the proposal has a technical component, it will be reviewed by the Technical Committee in the "Technical Discussion" category on the Forum and discussed using the `#technical-discussion` tag on Discord. The committee will provide feedback and suggest changes to align the proposal with the project's vision.
5. **Finalization and Voting**: After addressing the feedback, the Proposal Champion will submit the final proposal for a vote on Snapshot. A link to the vote will be shared in the "Voting Announcements" category on the Forum and announced using the `#voting-announcements` tag on Discord. Voting will be open for a predetermined period (e.g., 72 hours).
