The Uniswap DAO has seen a large influx of delegates and community participants over the past couple of months. DAO-led programs have also increased in quantity. Unfortunately, many of these proposals and conversations can get lost in the swath of forum posts, making it difficult to keep track of what’s important and timely. It also takes some time for new entrants to become familiar with the DAO’s existing initiatives. To increase clarity around monthly DAO occurrences, we are resuming governance community calls, now led by the Uniswap Accountability Committee (UAC).
These calls will be hosted using Google Meets on the second Tuesday of every month, from 10am – 11am Eastern Time. You may refer to this calendar to keep track of meeting dates and links.
Note that these community calls are hosted by the DAO and are separate from the Uniswap Foundation’s calls.
This forum thread will provide updates and reminders regarding the monthly calls. We will be recording each of the meetings and tracking the attendance for delegates that are a part of the delegate reward program.
If you are ever interested in covering a particular proposal or discussion point regarding Uniswap governance in general, please feel free to reach out. Our team will collect a list of relevant topics for each call and contact authors of currently active proposals to ensure that they have a chance to directly interact with the community and fairly present their thoughts. The format of these calls will be a combination of quick, successive presentations from a couple of community members, followed by a live Q&A/discussion.
The first meeting will take place on Tuesday, September 10, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM ET.
If you are a part of the of cycle 2 of delegate rewards, we are giving teams a “free” absence due to the short notice for this call. We still encourage all teams to attend and engage with other delegates.
Most individuals with active discussions and proposals have already been contacted. If you have a topic that you feel is important to discuss, please send us a message.
Prospective itinerary:
UAC Renewal and Accounts Rebalancing
Update on New Incentive Distributions
Base 2, 3, 4 bps fee-tiers (onchain vote)
UTWG Status Update
Conclusion of Uniswap-Arbitrum LTIPP
Open Discussion: Experimentation with Temperature Checks
For those who attended, you participation has also been logged. Note that this meeting is exempt from delegate reward points. Starting from the next call, we will be counting attendance.
We can bring this up tomorrow and see if delegates want alternating meeting times. There’s no perfect time, unfortunately. Like moving it up an hour makes it tougher for Asia-based delegates. Let’s see.
It is indeed tricky. For some DAOs, they had a system where delegates can write their comments after watching the recording for those can’t make it. They had to make comments within 3-7 days of recording being shared.
Delegates that are a part of the current rewards initiative were asked to complete a Google Form to track attendance. Responses have been recorded and will be reflected in this month’s compensation.
Since delegates have requested a survey regarding governance call timing, below are a handful of options for future calls. Meetings will still be held on the second Tuesday of each month to prevent more coordination complications. Feel free to select as many openings as you’d like.
Due to its proximity to Uniday at DevCon, the November Community Call will be canceled.
We will resume the regular call schedule during the following month, which will take place on December 10th.
As per the above survey, we will not be changing the time for these calls—they will continue to be held on the second Tuesday of each month between 10am - 11am ET, unless stated otherwise.

A couple of topics are still pending but may be pushed to January. If you have a topic that you feel is important to discuss, please send us a message.
Yeah, I don’t see why not. We’ll also be using a tool to take notes automatically, so if the community wants those, we can post them. Not sure if multiple AIs creates an issue.
