š Original message:Hi,
Perhaps at some point consider introducing something akin to a
'Bitcoin-Draft' (BD) status with some autoexpiry period?
I understand that the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
<http://www.ietf.org>; has the concept of 'Internet Drafts" (ID)
<http://www.ietf.org/ietf-ftp/1id-guidelines.txt>; and this looks like it
has worked for them so far.
