[DEPRECATED] DAO curated node registry - 'Verified Operators'

I like it.
Here’s my feedback:

The community should have at least 3 days for comments and modifications

3 days is way too short. We know from experience, that we need at least 7 days to discuss it. I don’t see a problem with that, since one of the requirements is to run an operator for at least 1 month on the testnet. Why the rush?

Operator score at time of proposal is above x
Consistent operator score above X(TBD) for at least 1 week

Aren’t those terms redundant in a way? I’d recommend keeping the second term and increasing the time. We should optimize for high quality, instead of high speed. Overall, the proposal is good, but it feels like “we’re in a rush”.

Running at least 10 validators in testnet

Seems a very low number. One could easily set up 10 validators themselves. How do we prevent this?

Promote client diversity, try to support minority clients

Shouldn’t we “enforce” this in a way? What if we add this metric to the operator score? This way we’d incentivize using a minority client, and we give smaller operators a chance to stand out. Do we need a proposal on how the operator score is calculated, other than just the attestation rate?
