[PROPOSAL][ABANDONED] reduce governance voting period to 7 days

I wouldn’t support this change either.
7 days might be just enough time for validators to make up their minds, vote and write a disclosure to delegator on reasons behind their vote. It might be sufficient for nominal changes such as sdk version but wouldn’t be enough for other “opinion-based” decision.
We, as validators, constantly keeping up with the news and network developments. The majority of validators need time to discover those proposals and digest all possible implications. If the goal is to increase non-valaidator participation in governance, the 2 weeks window should stay.
