Polkassembly is an integral part of Polkadot and Kusama governance. We have been actively working on making the smoothest governance experience at Polkassembly for OpenGov
In our endeavor to do so, we completed our first milestone with the theme of migrating and adapting Polkassembly to all OpenGov related changes and successfully delivered on the same by Feb end.
The theme of the previous proposal was Technical &amp; Product Based Migration, Education regarding OpenGov &amp; Creation of an appropriate user experience for the large transition governance went through.
The upcoming milestone aims to build Delegation as a simple, intuitive and exciting experience. We have developed our dashboard, with a user first mindset aimed at promoting agile governance. The core goal is to be ecosystem thought leaders and innovators, working with other teams including Nova. We will bring forth a list of delegation candidates, along with their voting experience and activity statistics, in order to enable maximum adoption of delegation.
