# Masa Improvement Proposals (MIPs)
Welcome to the Masa Improvement Proposals (MIPs) repository. This is the central hub for proposing, discussing, and collaborating on enhancements to the Masa protocol.
## Purpose of MIPs
MIPs are documents designed to introduce new features, processes, or changes to the Masa protocol. They provide a structured approach for the community to contribute ideas and for the project to evolve transparently.
## Submitting New MIPs
To submit a new MIP:
1. **Clone** this repository.
2. **Create** a new branch for your MIP.
3. **Draft** your proposal using the [MIP template](MIP/mip_template.md).
4. **Naming Convention**: `mip---`
5. **Open** a pull request or submit an issue with your draft in the [DRAFT MIPs folder](MIP/draft).
Ensure your proposal is clear, concise, and follows the formatting guidelines.
## Commenting on Draft MIPs
Community feedback is essential. To comment on a draft MIP:
- Navigate to the MIP's pull request or issue.
- Provide constructive feedback and engage in discussions.
Please be respectful and keep conversations relevant to the proposal.
## Guidelines for Contributions
- **Be Respectful**: Maintain a positive and inclusive community.
- **Stay On Topic**: Focus on the proposal at hand.
- **Provide Evidence**: Support your suggestions with clear reasoning or data.
- **Follow Formatting**: Use the prescribed structure for consistency.
## MIP Lifecycle and Statuses
MIPs progress through several stages:
- **Draft**: Initial submission, open for feedback.
- **Review**: Undergoing detailed examination.
- **Accepted**: Approved for implementation.
- **Rejected**: Not proceeding further.
- **Withdrawn**: Removed by the author.
## Formatting and Structure
All MIPs should include:
- **Abstract**: A brief summary of the proposal.
- **Motivation**: The problem being solved.
- **Specification**: Detailed description of the proposed changes.
- **Rationale**: Justification for design decisions.
- **Backwards Compatibility**: Impact on existing deployments.
- **Test Cases**: Examples to illustrate the proposal.
- **Implementation**: (Optional) Links to prototype or code samples.
Use markdown for formatting and adhere to the [MIP template](link-to-template).
## Governance Process
Acceptance of MIPs is determined by:
- **Community Consensus**: Majority support from participants.
- **Technical Merit**: Feasibility and alignment with project goals.
- **Impact Assessment**: Evaluation of benefits versus risks.
Final decisions are documented and communicated transparently.
