ZCG Request for Proposal (RFP) - Community Note Taker 2025 1. Project Description The [Zcash Community Grants Committee](https://zcashcommunitygrants.org/) (ZCG) is inviting qualified independent contractors to submit a proposal to provide note taker services for biweekly Zcash Arborist calls. The respondent selected by ZCG will be an independent contractor governed by an independent contractor agreement with the Financial Privacy Foundation (FPF). The agreement will be for a probationary three month period with an option for ZCG/FPF to extend until November 2025. 2. Project Schedule * RFP posted on Zcash Community Forum on February 24, 2025 * Responses due March 14, 2025, 11:00pm UTC * ZCG will review and select the winning proposal by March 31, 2025 3. Scope of Work As the Zcash developer community grows, effective communication of protocol development decisions is becoming increasingly important. Currently, to stay informed about discussions on protocol upgrades, one must watch the 1.5-hour Zcash Arborist calls held biweekly. We seek an independent contractor to attend these calls and take concise notes summarizing discussions, key decisions, and action items. The contractor will also create a summary thread on X/Twitter highlighting the main points and outcomes as well as post on the Zcash Community Forum. Given the technical nature of these discussions, it’s acceptable to refine notes using the YouTube recording after the call. The expectation is that the post-meeting actions will be completed as quickly and efficiently as possible to ensure the community receives information in a timely manner. Notes will be submitted via GitHub. Examples of prior minutes can be found at the following links: [Github](https://github.com/ZcashCommunityGrants/arboretum-notes/tree/main/AllArboristCallNotes), [X](https://x.com/zksquirrel/status/1889105344556585447), [Forum Post](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/zcash-arborist-call-updates/45977/19). 4.
