</div>

Would it be possible to consider establishing a new proposal to revise [SEP#3] milestone achievement on safe transferability, as many related grants and resource models are currently tied to safe to be tranferable issues, pre-approval transferability may be reduced Difficulty associated with subsequent operations.

This was two month ago. Three milestones left “in discussion” have these been reached? Really would appreciate some updates on the progress.

@Boris, Did Theo communicate publicly that he is on a career break? According to his [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/theodorbeutel/) it seems he’s still at Safe…

From my understanding this morning the position has been filled and the new SEF member is being onboarded. Hopefully SEF will make an official update to provide more information.

Maybe we should just write proposal seeking [Milestone D](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/discussion-safe-dao-resource-allocation-model-obra/1001) removed.

It’s annoying to see the last time someone talk about it was 7 months ago (9th February)

Hi @CaptainTee, check out this [thread](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/sep-x-outcomes-based-resource-allocation-framework-obra/4050). Resource allocation framework is in Phase 0. We also had a governance call last week on Discord where we’ll post the notes.

</div>

maybe ask the guys to make an empty repository (e.g. for storing fundamental documents… whatever). and use a task manager to organize these processes and to track them transparently… would it be much clearer? It’s just that we realize that right now there is no one place that describes all the current relevant problems that are not solved by the community and/or team / foundation and so on.

Yes!

- The governance framework [SEP#7](https://snapshot.org/#/safe.eth/proposal/0x71bf4469fc289bab2d8ce99ba41d5792c1c5d581defc12042d3cf1eb3e136323) has passed!
- The [Outcomes-based resource allocation framework (OBRA)](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/sep-x-outcomes-based-resource-allocation-framework-obra/4050) framework is in-progress. I’d expect an SEP soon.

Following up here with a progress overview of the milestones. We’ll maintain this thread up to date and as a central place for all discussions around them.

Milestone A “The claim period has passed”  
 Milestone B “An [SEP](https://snapshot.org/#/safe.eth/proposal/0xbb71846f7fdfdd31033bde9cf25c880b46d50d1dda75cbf653d6a94318f96290) on a constitution proposal has been ratified”  
 Milestone C “An [SEP](https://snapshot.org/#/safe.eth/proposal/0x71bf4469fc289bab2d8ce99ba41d5792c1c5d581defc12042d3cf1eb3e136323) on a governance framework has been ratified”  
 Milestone D “An SEP on a resource allocation framework has been ratified”: Resource allocation framework is expected to be voted on with the new [governance framework](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/sep-7-governance-framework/3711/) in Season 1, Sprint 1.  
 Milestone E “An SEP on token utility has been ratified”

We’ll also add this to the governance hub as a task board as suggested by @RSivakov.

Thanks for stewarding this important process @Andre - have the dates for Season 1 been decided on and communicated yet?

I want to mention again, that the closer the Seasons allign with existing yearly Quarters, the better IMHO (for planning and tax reasons).

</div>

The dates for Season 1 have been decided on in the [governance framework](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/sep-7-governance-framework/3711/2), see Section D.II and E.II.

- Each season consists of 4 sprints
- Sprints have a duration of 4 weeks (Season = 16 weeks)
- All relevant deadlines always end on Mondays to ensure predictability,
  - Submission to Phase 0 and Phase 1 (relevant for proposal authors),
  - Signaling on maturity (relevant for guardians and delegates) and
  - End of voting period (relevant for token holders and delegates)

While a season doesn’t precisely align with the standard yearly quarters - especially since we commence mid-year - it strikes a balance between predictable, fixed weekday deadlines and sprints that come close to a month’s duration.

> [@\[SEP #7\] Governance Framework](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/sep-7-governance-framework/3711/26):
>
> The duration of sprints has been corrected from 5 to 4 weeks. This adjustment was made after reviewing the timeline and also aligns with the feedback in favour of more iterations within a year.

The exact dates for Season 1 - Sprint 1 can be found in the [Governance Hub](https://gov.safe.global) under [📅 Governance calendar](https://safe-global.notion.site/c5fe39abe68f4c6bada847dd496a67c4?v=f7a82079c46449e7961307d6de770373&pvs=4).

SAFE is one of the most important and valuable components of the blockchain industry and yet most don’t even know about it because it isn’t transferable or tradable. The bull market has all but returned and now is the time to make it happen. If we simply enabled a basic governance framework to build upon and enabled transfers, the entire ecosystem would blossom much faster than its current pace. It would wake the world up to the fact that SAFE is essentially replicating the Oracle model and one of the most valuable companies in the entire industry with close to $70 billion of assets in custody and about 75% of the de-if market Developers and Institutional $ would pour in. What it being considered right now for governance? Could SAFE use a blockchain built simply for governance purposes? If so, I can help make that happen, my company has one with governance capabilities that’s ready for public testnet

Hello @Andre , hope you’re doing well.  
Milestone D reached quorum and otw to get accepted , can we involve more people into [SAFE Token Utility Proposal](https://forum.safefoundation.org/t/safe-token-utility-proposal/2447) ?  
We need active discussion as it is the last and most important topic before we enable transferability , your participation would be really appreciated.  
Regards 🙂
