Proposal

### Polkadot OpenGov Proposal Summary

- **Objective**: Improve governance proposals on Polkadot by adapting successful processes from Kusama OpenGov.
- **Problem**: Current proposals on Kusama are poorly structured, lack information, and are time-consuming for voters to understand.
- **Solution**: Introduce a proposal auditing process to provide constructive feedback early in the proposal development phase.
- **Milestones**:
  1. Adjust governance documents from Kusama to fit Polkadot.
  2. Start proposal audits during the discussion phase and follow up on-chain.
- **Funding**: Requesting 2179.57 DOT for auditors CoinStudio and Abdulbee.
- **Documentation**: All documents, audits, and records are stored on GitHub and Airtable.
- **Community Involvement**: Open to onboarding additional auditors from the community.
- **Feedback**: Seeking community input to enhance transparency and efficiency in governance.

CoinStudio and Abdulbee propose to bring their successful proposal auditing process from Kusama OpenGov to Polkadot OpenGov. The proposal outlines their plan to improve the governance proposals process within the Polkadot community by providing constructive feedback during the discussion phase and improving the quality and transparency of incoming proposals. The proposal seeks funding of 2179.57 DOT split into 2 payments between auditors CoinStudio and Abdulbee.
