I have put it on the github:
https://github.com/jl2012/bips/blob/master/hardforkbit.mediawiki
I removed the specification of coinbase message to make it simpler.
Instead, it requires that a flag block must not be shared by multiple
hardfork proposals.
I'm not sure whether it is a Standard, Informational, or Process BIP
I'm also thinking whether we should call it "hardfork bit", "hardfork
flag", or with other name.
