This is an attempt to unify views on why and how hardforks can be deployed. I would like to turn this into an informational BIP later after gathering some feedback.
Please, do not discuss block size issues here: there's plenty of threads to do so. The scope of this one is only hardforks and softforks in a more abstract way. Sometimes block size changes are used as examples because no other example came to mind (non-blocksize-related examples for the same cases [or others] are a user should be just ignored. But what if the welcomed), and if we go into too much detail they stop being useful as examples. So please, try to avoid going into too much detail about the concrete examples when possible. https://github.com/jtimon/bips/blob/bip-forks/bip-forks.org Please, feel free to make suggestions or bike-shed some of the terms. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bitcoin-development mailing list Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development
