* [bitcoin-dev] Proposed minor change to BIP 01 to use a PR for request assignment

The process in BIP01 was written when we used a different solution for
storing and presenting BIPs.
I'm thinking of suggesting that the number request process be changed
to opening a pull req with BIP text with no number (e.g. just using
the authors name and an index as the number) as the mechenism to
request number assignment.
Is there any reason that anyone would find this objectionable?
(Please do not respond to this message with anything but a strictly
directed answer to that question, start a new thread for a different
subject. Thanks!)

It's a good idea. It would remove friction from the process and
assignment is auditable to boot, something I've had difficulty with in
the past. Almost every time I see a BIP number I would wonder, is that
self-assigned (and thus invalid) or has it been assigned by the BIP
editor.

None that I can see.
In fact I was just about to ask for some details about this part of the
process, so this come just at the right time.

We used to have a WIKI page for all the BIP stuff and that worked
better IMO, the use of git(hub) for it was a step forward in a number
of ways but made the number assignment part an odd duck. We should
have fixed it then, but it wasn't obvious (enough) that it needed
fixing at the time. Live and learn.

I think it's a reasonable approach. Once the number is assigned, the
change is made and the pull request is updated.
Only thing is it would be nice to be able to indicate which pull
requests are number requests and which pull requests are ready for
merging. Perhaps we should make a special label for number requests.
