I'm thinking of suggesting that the number request process be changed to opening a pull req with BIP text with no number (e.g. just using the authors name and an index as the number) as the mechenism to request number assignment. Is there any reason that anyone would find this objectionable? (Please do not respond to this message with anything but a strictly directed answer to that question, start a new thread for a different subject. Thanks!)
