Not much has changed besides internal workings, right? Though perhaps that's still significant enough for 0.8. > o BIP process: are we happy with how it is working? What can we do to > improve it? Amir seems to be more and more absent these days, so it might be nice to setup a successor failsafe in the event that he cannot be reached. It would be a shame for the BIP process to fall apart merely because we can't get numbers assigned. But more important to the success of BIP today, I think, is encouraging wider community participation. The stratum mining mess seems to be a direct result of lack of participation in the GBT BIP process (resulting in it not being as ideal as some pools desire) and lack of any peer review/contribution toward the stratum protocol. What can we do to increase awareness of BIP and encourage more collaboration?
