| − | ==== Create your compensation request issue ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you wish to request compensation for the current [[Glossary#DAO Cycle|cycle]], you should create a [[Submit_compensation_request|compensation request issue]] no later than '''one week prior''' to the end of the current cycle's proposal phase. This is in order to allow time for review by your [[Team Lead]]. Reminders about this deadline are sent every cycle to the [https://github.com/bisq-network/teams/dao @bisq-network/dao] team, so you should make sure you are watching discussions for that team.

| − | WIP (Work in Progress) compensation requests may be submitted with a <code>[WIP]</code> prefix in the title, e.g. <code>[WIP] For Cycle 10</code>. Such WIP requests are assumed not to be ready for review until the WIP prefix is removed. This allows you a convenient way to incrementally add content to a compensation request throughout the course of a cycle without triggering a review prematurely. To indicate that a WIP compensation request is now ready for review, remove the <code>[WIP]</code> prefix from the compensation request issue and add a comment stating ''"This request is ready for review"''. Any compensation request submitted without a WIP prefix will be assumed to be ready for review.

| − | ==== Ensure your request is valid ====
| |

| − | To more efficiently evaluate issuance for budgeting, compensation requests are evaluated by a bot. This bot requires that compensation requests follow a particular format. This format is detailed in the placeholder text for new compensation request issues—just follow the guidelines there, and/or look at other requests if you're not sure about something.
| |
| | | | |
| − | In order to make sure the bot can actually read the request, requests are linted as soon as they are ready for review (i.e., as soon as <code>[WIP]</code> is removed from the issue title). A request is labeled <code>parsed:valid</code> if it's valid, <code>parsed:invalid</code> if it's not. If invalid, a comment is added indicating the error. Please watch for this label and fix any errors the linter finds.

| + | The compensation maintainer oversees the day-to-day process of compensation requests, triages issues, and determines rates. |
| | | | |
| − | When your team lead or other stakeholders review your compensation request, they will provide any feedback or requests for changes in the form of a comment on your request issue. Please respond to it promptly. When there is no further feedback, your team lead will add a comment asking you to submit this compensation request as a DAO proposal. The instructions how to do so are in the next section.

| − | When a team lead is assigned to a compensation request issue, they should promptly review it with regard to whether the work meets the definition of delivered, and whether it fits within the team budget. The team lead should add feedback and comments as a appropriate, and assign the contributor to the issue to indicate that they are expected to respond to the review.
| + | == Stakeholder == |

| − | Remember that just as stakeholders may vote on any DAO proposal, stakeholders may review any contributor's compensation request. To do so, simply add your review feedback in the form of a comment, and react to the compensation request issue with a thumbs-up, thumbs-down or confused face emoji as appropriate. Note that with the exception of team leads, there is no obligation to perform these reviews, and in general you should only review compensation requests that you are knowledgeable about.
