From c1261ac6473040ca6079fe4f9301102d0e518446 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bryan Bishop Date: Fri, 1 Jan 2016 11:06:47 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] BIP1: clarify "issue tracker" statement This switches from specifying "Bitcoin issue tracker" to specifying "Bitcoin Core issue tracker". Other issue trackers are useful for other client development activities, although this does not seem necessary to mention. --- bip-0001.mediawiki | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/bip-0001.mediawiki b/bip-0001.mediawiki index ad96dced..9703409c 100644 --- a/bip-0001.mediawiki +++ b/bip-0001.mediawiki @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ The BIP editors assign BIP numbers and change their status.

It is highly recommended that a single BIP contain a single key proposal or new idea.

The more focused the BIP, the more successful it tends to be. The BIP editor reserves the right to reject BIP proposals if they appear too unfocused or too broad. If in doubt, split your BIP into several well-focused ones. Each BIP must have a champion -- someone who writes the BIP using the style and format described below, shepherds the discussions in the appropriate forums, and attempts to build community consensus around the idea. The BIP champion (a.k.a. Author) should first attempt to ascertain whether the idea is BIP-able. Posting to the [https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev bitcoin-dev] mailing list (and maybe the [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=6.0 Development&Technical Discussion] forum) is the best way to go about this.
