Concept ACK I think this (a BIP process revision) is warranted. Perhaps we should have a future community meeting to discuss finalizing this when (hopefully) you have been confirmed as an additional BIP editor @kallewoof and people have calmed down re Taproot activation. No rush, I expect people to still be emotional for at least a few weeks yet. |

Tend to NACK to write a new meta process BIP for simple changes like this that are not a complete re-write. I prefer #1012 See #1116 (comment) for rationale. |

From the text: "(authors MUST NOT self-assign BIP numbers)". Set the example you want people to follow :)

I think this is just a joke :) but just in case it isn't BIP editors assign BIP numbers. A BIP process revision needs a BIP editor to assign a number to it. If we were to be really pedantic Luke should assign the BIP number so Kalle isn't assigning his own BIP number. It seems clear though that 1-7 have been reserved for revised BIP processes and that a proposed revised BIP process to BIP 2 is obviously going to be BIP 3.

I missed the initial comment. Yeah, I shouldn't have done that. Will address if I reopen this.

I think we can start to tentatively add to this PR based on the discussions from the BIP process meetings (1, 2). Are you going to add to this PR @kallewoof or would you rather review PRs to your branch from the outset? As a reminder there is a #bitcoin-dev Libera IRC channel too for discussion based on the meetings to keep comments on this PR manageable. |

@michaelfolkson You're the biggest driving force behind this change, so I think the best course of action is closing this and having you open an alternative PR based on the meetings/conclusions. |
Update: this is, at the moment / subject to change, the starting point for the revisal of the BIP process e.g. https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/wiki/BIP-Process-wishlist
I'm not sure this is warranted, but for ease of comparison, I am opening up a replacement BIP of BIP 2, an alternative to the modification pull request #1012.
Note: I didn't realize there was an .svg source for the process.png file, so I rewrote the thing from scratch in latex. The .tex file is added in this commit. If people prefer, I will try to rewrite in the .svg format, but I put some effort into it so please compare the tex version first.
