⏭️Causality Protocol

This page describes the design principles of Open Constitution Network's Causality Consensus protocol.

The Open Constitution network community establishes a governance equilibrium with a deterministic Causality consensus protocol.

Causality Consensus Motion is a community consensus protocol.

The action of governance that, once set in motion, would cause another action, with no additional energy required to do so.

Decisions arrived out of Open Governance are decisions that influence or continue to influence the Foundation's roadmap, direction and active steering.

At times, certain subjects may require that such decisions be taken (which once logged on Open Constitution Network), may alter another part of the network.

All Core Working Committee chairs, Open Council chairs, Ambassador Council chairs, or the Chancellor of the Executive Council can apply Causality Motion on merged "Change Requests".

Only merged Change Requests qualify for a Causality Motion protocol.

Causality Motion protocol cannot be applied to proposals which require immediate processing or those requiring emergency attention i.e. proposals or change requests which received a Privilege Motion.

Causality Motion protocol cannot be applied to proposals to which Perpetual motion protocol is applied. Decisions are logged on the Open Constitution Network Governance System, with the Causality Protocol.
