Forum Post: https://forum.yam.finance/t/quarterly-compensation-updates-for-existing-contributors/1533

This proposal updates contributor compensation per the changes made in YIP-84 for Q4 of 2021. This proposal will apply to contributors whose compensation packages are dictated by the last contributor compensation guidelines and will not apply to “OG” contributors whose compensation packages were determined in the first compensation proposal.

The following contributors will have their compensation updated to match the guidelines. Some contributors are moving to part time status, or have stopped contributing to the DAO.
