Namecoin Enhancement Proposal Proposal

[indolering]

The idea of a more formal Namecoin Enhancement Proposal process (similar to Bitcoin, Python, et. al) has been kicked around for a while but no action taken on it.

Usually, these documents are static, with the commenting mostly happening in a mailing list somewhere. This way of doing things misses out on an important opportunity to capture institutional knowledge along with the proposal.

So, instead of a separate website, what if we just create a label (like NEP) for Github issue/ticket system and put them there? We can label it as draft/rejected/accepted as well and when an idea is implemented it can be attached to the correct milestone.

I've created a dummy version of this in a repo I own, if you want to see what it would look like.

Probably not, the ticket system doesn't have a history feature nor does it allow for headlines. It may also clutter the developer workflow. Khal requested that we wait until after the hosting and website situation has stabilized.
