Interesting. The main reason I wrote my proposal was because the only =
proposal that came close to covering the same area was BIP 39, which at =
that time had 2 paragraphs of text (although admittedly did link to a =
text file off site where the draft was being developed). And currently =
there are 2 proposals that have numbers allocated but are empty (BIP 40 =
and 41) with no references to the development or discussion.

I appreciate the fact that acceptance of proposals on the BIP page are =
more strict, but it may be desirable to have the enforcement be more =
uniform. Also, BIP 38 is gaining more acceptance out in the community =
(many sites support the import of these keys and a growing number of =
paper wallet sites / coin / card vendors are offering it as an option), =
yet it's still missing from the BIP list, which seems to me a bit =
counter to the arguments given about community acceptance.

Good point. I'm developing my own client (which has the code up and =
running, with unit tests), but I'm not ready to release it just yet =
until I've got all the client's alpha features working. Would putting =
contact information there so people can ask for the relevant code be =
sufficient until I have my client up on github?
