Can you point to a link describing maybe the process
and specifically the structure, format, and submission
guidelines for official documents such as a Pace.
Don't know of such a link, so here's how it works.
Well, go to the wiki (starting at http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/
pie/AtomPubIssuesList) and read a few Paces to get a feel for it.
What I usually do is find a Pace that's suggesting changes similar in
flavor to the ones I have in mind, hit "Edit this page", copy, the
source code, hit "cancel", then if I want to create
PaceTimsBrainstorm I go and edit http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/
pie/TimsBrainstorm, the Wiki notices that it doesn't exist, I hit
"create this page" and paste in all the source I copied from the
previous page, edit it, and there you go.
Exception: if it's a big complicated hairy thing, I take the saved
source and paste it into my desktop text editor and fix it up there
before I paste it into the new page.
If you know some other people on the list who you think might agree
with you, contact them have them take a look at the Pace and suggest
improvements.
Once you've done that, send a message to the list saying "I just
posted PaceXXX". Some people actually copy the text of the Pace into
the email, others just post a link,.
Then duck.
