 ## Summary
-This proposal appointed Proph3t and Nallok as Benevolent Dictators For 3 Months (BDF3M) from proposal finalization through June 30, 2024, to accelerate MetaDAO's execution speed. The appointment included authority over retroactive compensation (December 2023 - March 2024), ongoing business operations, project management, and contributor compensation. The proposal requested 1,015 META and 100,000 USDC to cover seven months total (four retroactive, three forward-looking), averaging 145 META and $14,000 per month.

-- **Proposal Number:** 14
 - **Completed:** 2024-03-31
+- **Proposal Number:** 14
+
+## Authority Granted
+The BDF3M role included:
+- Retroactive compensation for all prior MetaDAO contributions
+- Managing ongoing business operations and project management
+- Steering the off-chain proposal process and compensating proposers
+- Handling operational expenses
+- Improving futarchy mechanism security and efficacy
+- Providing monthly community updates
+- Making exceptional use grants for MetaDAO's code licenses
+
+## OKRs
+- Complete 10 GitHub issues per week
+- Process retroactive compensation within 1 week of passage
+- Oversee creation of new landing page
 
 ## Significance
-This proposal represented a critical governance transition for MetaDAO, acknowledging that the futarchy mechanism itself was "too slow and costly" for operational decisions at that stage. The proposers estimated that failure would decrease MetaDAO's probability of success by more than 20%, indicating high stakes. The appointment consolidated decision-making authority outside the proposal process while the team worked to improve the futarchy mechanism itself—a pragmatic acknowledgment of bootstrapping challenges in futarchy-governed organizations.
-
-The proposal established OKRs including completing 10 GitHub issues per week and handling retroactive compensation within one week of passage. It also granted authority for exceptional use grants of MetaDAO's code licenses and noted that META would likely be issued in 5-year locked form.
+This proposal represented a critical governance transition where MetaDAO acknowledged that "the current proposal process is too slow and costly" for startup-speed execution. The entrepreneurs stated that proposal failure would decrease MetaDAO's success probability by more than 20%, framing this as an existential decision point. The structure created a temporary centralized leadership layer above the futarchy mechanism to handle operational decisions while the core governance system matured.
