I meant only to convey that the document would appear on bitcoincore.org iff the PR were ultimately accepted. In other words, while it is up to "the community of Core Contributors" in a philosophical sense, it is up to the maintainers of BitcoinCore.org in a practical sense, because they are the ones who ultimately decide if the standard has been met. I think it is perfectly reasonable to keep site-updates narrowly organized in the GitHub PR sphere (and to ignore everything else). > [1] https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoincore.org/issues/new > > Speaking as the instigator of [3] and the primary author of [4] (both > originally published on Bitcoin.org), I'll point out that Maxwell's > reply to you was a slightly rewritten version of a reply to me sent on = 4 > November 2016 (as noted elsewhere in the thread and confirmed in my > mailbox).
