I've completed an initial draft of a BIP that provides clarifications on the
Status field for BIPs, as well as adding the ability for public comments on
them, and expanding the list of allowable BIP licenses.

I plan to open discussion of making this BIP an Active status (along with BIP
123) a month after initial revisions have completed. Please provide any
objections now, so I can try to address them now and enable consensus to be
reached.
 

I like the more concrete definitions of the various statuses.

I don't like the definition of "consensus".  I think the definition described gives too much centralized control to whoever controls the mailing list and the wiki.
