Project Serum RFCs

The "RFC" (request for comments) process is intended to provide a consistent and open venue for discussion of potential changes and additions to projects under the decentralized Project Serum protocol so that all stakeholders can be confident about the direction of the project.

This medium of discussion has been formed by open source contributors to the protocol and is in no way in control of the Project Serum protocol.

As Project Serum is a completely decentralized autonomous organization, all protocol decisions are made via the on-chain governance process. A community-hosted user interface for this on-chain program can be viewed on Realms.

Process

• Fork this repo
• Copy 0000-template.md to text/0000-my-feature.md (where "my-feature" is descriptive). Don't assign an RFC number yet; This is going to be the PR number and we'll rename the file accordingly if the RFC is accepted.
• Fill in the RFC.
• Submit a pull request. As a pull request the RFC will receive design feedback from the larger community, and the author should be prepared to revise it in response.
• Now that your RFC has an open pull request, use the issue number of the PR to update your 0000- prefix to that number.
• Build consensus and integrate feedback. RFCs that have broad support are much more likely to make progress than those that don't receive any comments.
• After adequate discussion of design choices and tradeoffs, as determined by the author, the plan outlined in the RFC can be executed.
• This may include posting the proposal to the Project Serum forums
