Editing DAO Governance Framework (section)

=== DGF workflow ===
''[[DGF workflow|Main page: DGF workflow]]''

The DGF system is designed as a feedback loop consisting of three major components: 1. the Forum, 2. the collection of members of the DAO, called the Bench of experts, and 3. the public, consisting of non-member users of the system who pay fees to the DAO for work.

The basic DGF workflow is as follows: 

# A public customer uses the [[Front-end software|public UI]] to find the most current [[Work Smart Contract|work smart contract]] (WSC), both of which are contained in the [[Forum]].
# Customer encumbers the appropriate $ fee and selects relevant parameters to engage the WSC.
# WSC randomly selects a worker from the DAO from amongst the available experts who have encumbered REP tokens in [[availability smart contract|availability smart contracts]] (ASCs).
# Selected worker completes job offline, then completes the requirements of the WSC. 
# WSC publishes evidence of completed job to a post in the Forum, then engages an instantiation of the [[Validation Pool]].[[File:DGF flow.png|thumb|517x517px]]
#* WSC sends address of post and public customer's $ fee to an instantiation of the [[Validation Pool]] (VP)
#* VP mints new REP in proportion to the $ fee.
#* 1/2 of new REP is staked in worker's name as an upvote. 1/2 staked as a downvote, unassigned.
#* VP broadcasts voting is open to REP staking on betting pool.
#* VP tallies the vote, decides the winner.
#* VP publishes the result & distributes REP tokens from losing side to the winners, weighted according to stakes.
# The $ fee is distributed to all DAO members in proportion to REP holdings ([[Reputation#REP Salary Mechanism|REP salary]]).
