> Roasbeef's work on alternative clients and lightning make him technically useful I think one of the aim of the BIP process is to harmonize common mechanisms among Bitcoin clients of different langages breeds or at different layers (wallet / full-node). Having someone among BIP editors with a proven track record of contributing to other full-node codebase beyond C++ can be valuable in that sense. Especially for all matters related to compatibility and deployment. > For example I think Jon Atack would make a great Core maintainer at some point in the future and I'm not sure a BIP editor should also be a Core maintainer given the > independence sometimes required between Core and the BIP process In a world where both Core and BIP repository are living under a single Github organization, I don't think in matters that much as the highest privilege account will be able to override any BIP merging decision, or even remove on the flight BIP editors rights in case of conflicts or controversies. If you're raising the issue that the BIP repository should be moved to its own GH repository I think it's a valuable point. Beyond, I still think we should ensure we have a wider crowd of geographically and culturally diverse BIP editors. As if the role is ensuring high-quality and readability of the terminology of the standards, we might have highly-skilled technical BIP champions which are not English native. With the current set of proposed BIP editors, to the best of my knowledge, at least we have few langages spoken by the candidates: Dutch, French, German, Spanish. This can be very helpful to translate concepts devised in language A to technical english. Best, Antoine Le vendredi 29 mars 2024 à 12:33:09 UTC, /dev /fd0 a écrit : > Justification: > > 1.
