Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The Wish for Change referendum track of OpenGov is used by the Polkadot community to signal some changes within the network that they see as needed. Currently, some of these requests relate to technical matters that need to be implemented by Polkadot SDK developers. However, these requests don't have much visibility, and it is therefore difficult to attract contributors who can/will work on these.

Describe the solution you'd like
One solution would be for Kudos to create a specific type of projects called "Wish For Change" so that visitors have access to these community-vetted proposals.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Other solutions would involve opening github issues for these WfC proposals. But these would probably not get as much visibility as if they were featured on Kudos.

Additional context
An example of a WfC proposal: Optimistic project funding

Thank you for suggesting this idea. Community wishlists are part of our development scope, as detailed in our proposal #857, so I am delighted to include WfC. Accepted WfCs can be integrated as a type of wish, rather than creating a specific type of project. We could have a wishes category on the page for a given project. In the case of "optimistic project funding," this could be added to the Polkadot project.

The structure of the single project page would be:

  1. Header: Project info, logo, link, and categories
  2. Project's Stats & Metrics
  3. Project's Issues
  4. Project's Wishes - WfC
  5. Project's Incentives (future)

A tracking issue may be associated with a WfC, as is the case for the "optimistic project funding." This will allow it to be highlighted and tagged, plus benefit from a special filter.

Let me know what you think.

P.S. On another topic, the "optimistic project funding" feature can be a good opportunity for projects to distribute funds to external contributors :)

Thank you for the clarifications. Indeed, this structure would make a lot more sense for findability purposes. 👍

This sounds good to me, thank you!

I can't comment on this as I am not familiar with the T&C of the Optimistic project funding WfC. However I will refer the proposers to this GH issue so that they can follow up on your idea.
Thank you! 😃
