(grumble gmail grumble) As with the IETF, there will be a great many drafts that do not make it to BIPS status. That is normal, and a sign of a healthy process. I'll volunteer as the BIPS editor. There needs to be some backups with commit access to bips.git, in case the BIPS editor is hit by a bus or goes crazy or on vacation. This can be some core devs, but I would like at least one or two folks who are not Satoshi-client devs on the list. Maybe Andreas, Michael G, Alan R, and others working on non-Satoshi clients. -- Jeff Garzik Senior Software Engineer and open source evangelist BitPay, Inc. https://bitpay.com/
