Adding New BIP Editors
Posted on: February 28, 2024 04:22 UTC
In the given correspondence, the sender expresses a preference for archiving the Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) repository and suggests that individuals maintain separate repositories for BIPs.
Despite this preference, there's an acknowledgment of the continued relevance of a unified BIPs repository. A significant point of contention highlighted is the disagreement with having mailing list moderators also serve as BIP editors. The sender explicitly disagrees with two suggested names for these roles but does not provide alternative suggestions or elaborate on the reasons for this disagreement. This stance underscores a broader discussion about the governance and maintenance of critical resources in the Bitcoin development ecosystem, highlighting concerns over potential conflicts of interest or inefficiencies that might arise from overlapping responsibilities between different administrative roles.
