This looks great—I agree with the others that this will dramatically simplify the scope of a lot of work. And with the DAO/ecosystem going in a more generic “we fund cool internet technologies” route, that opens up some really cool opportunities for brand journalism around the spaces where specific products operate, like Bear Is For Builders, or technical educational content that spans products, like Setting up a sovereign and funded open-source organization with Radicle and Drips.
Fingers crossed that we’ll be able to talk about this kind of content some more!
Speaking of which—a fairly tactical question on the Radicle Digest, not that the stakes for it are super high: Do we think this will become a Radicle product channel, if they choose to utilize it, or will it be absorbed into the ecosystem? @shelb_ee already has the governance-specific newsletter, but maybe there’s an opportunity to have product-agnostic newsletter with updates from across the ecosystem.
I like how Urbit defines their ecosystem as both the core orgs (Tlon and Urbit Foundation) and external orgs, products, and services built on top of Urbit. While these distinctions aren’t clear on their ecosystem pages, they more concretely describe the relationships elsewhere on their site. It’s not a perfect parallel, as they aren’t a DAO and only have one product, but it’s some proof that an ecosystem can consist of both its core orgs and the wider base of partners/users.
