Hey everyone,

I wanted to check in on the topic adding BIP Editors. There seem to be a=20
number of candidates that are willing and able, and there seems to be=20
broad agreement among the current editor, the readers of the repository,=20
and the contributors to the repository that additional help is desirable.

I have seen some support and reservations raised for pretty much every=20
candidate. A few weeks have passed since this topic was last active. So=20
far, there seems no clear path forward.

If we are all just in a holding pattern, perhaps we could timebox this=20
decision process: how about we invite arguments for and against any=20
candidates in this thread until next Friday EOD (April 5th). If any=20
candidates find broad support, those candidates could be added as new=20
editors to the repository on the following Monday (April 8th). If none=20
get broad support, at least we=E2=80=99d be able to move on and try somethi=
ng else.

I propose that all editors share the same privileges, especially that=20
any editor may assign numbers to BIPs. If there is guidance to be=20
provided on the process of assigning numbers and number ranges for=20
specific topics, it should be provided by then. If the editors decide on=20
a single number authority among themselves, that would also be fine as=20
long as it doesn=E2=80=99t become a bottleneck.

As Tim and Chris have suggested, it seems reasonable to me that=20
assessment of the technical soundness can be left to the audience. BIPs=20
have been published in the repository and set to the "rejected" status=20
before, so it=E2=80=99s not as if adding a BIP to the repository is treated=
 as=20
an unequivocal endorsement or implementation recommendation.

Cheers,
Murch
