So far, the XSF repo is *only* used for submitted XEPs, everything in
inbox/ is a ProtoXEPs and XEPs with numbers follow the standards track.
Changes are only made by the XSF Editor Team. It is not used for active
development of those XEPs, and I think it should be that way.

A while ago I suggested establishing an extra repo for incubating XEPs
and updates to existing XEPs in xsf@. My vision was to make write access
to that repo easily possible, to have it build via CI, and to publish it
somewhere (e.g. xmpp.org/lab), with the hope that this will encourage
collaboration, improve the quality of ProtoXEPs and kickstart
experimental implementations. This idea was not received well for some
reasons I frankly do not understand. We clearly need a place like that.
XEP development behind closed doors is not desirable.
