RFC: Altair Migration to OpenGov

Authors: @Rhano @ImdioR


Short Summary

Transition of our onchain governance from Gov1 to OpenGov.


High-level objective

To make a soft transition to OpenGov - while keeping the Gov1 pallets (including the council) for a transition period of 3 months - using the tracks and parameters proposed below.


Background

A formal proposal has already been made to migrate to OpenGov on Centrifuge so we are proposing to launch it on Altair first in order to test the functionality. The tracks on Altair are identical to those on Centrifuge, just with modified parameters.


Description of Activity

The GCG proposes the following tracks and parameters for our OpenGov setup. The Whitelisted Caller track will be managed by a Technical Committee that will be the same on both Centrifuge and Altair. They will be a mandated group and a separate proposal will be made for their mandate request.

Tracks

Below is an overview of the 6 suggested tracks and their descriptions.

Track Description Referendum examples
Root Track with the highest privilege Runtime upgrades, Technical Committee management
Whitelisted Caller Track used for referenda that have been whitelisted by the Technical Committee and can execute with Root privileges Fast-tracked operations
Pool Admin Custom track for pool management Launching a pool on Altair
Treasurer Track used for asking for funding from the treasury Treasury proposal
Referendum Canceller Track used for cancellation of incorrectly submitted referenda, Decision Deposit is refunded Wrong referendum
Referendum Killer Track used for killing malicious referenda, Decision Deposit is slashed Malicious/harmful referendum

All tracks follow this flow, but with different parameters:
