Constitutional amendment process

Tier 2 — Structurally thin, not launch-blocking
Status
Decided in principle — see Entry 014
Owner
Creator (initial draft); Council (ongoing)
Why now
Entry 014 captures the principles. Specific thresholds (% supermajority, cooldown days, board quorum) are deferred to constitutional drafting.

Specific thresholds for stacked-supermajority + cooldown + Foundation board ratification process from Entry 014.

Why this matters

Entry 014 captures the principles: stacked supermajority + quadratic voting + cooldown + Foundation board ratification. This gap closes once the specific parameters are set:

  • Supermajority threshold (70%? 75%? 80%?)
  • Cooldown period length (30? 60? 90? 120 days?)
  • Board ratification quorum and supermajority within the board itself
  • Which Constitution sections are amendable at all vs. genuinely immutable
  • Emergency amendment pathway for genuine crises — and how it can’t itself be captured
