## Decision-Making
|
|
|
|
As an Interest Group, we operate by **rough consensus** — we're exploring and recommending, not deciding. Outputs include:
|
|
|
|
- Documented requirements and use cases
|
|
- Evaluated approaches with findings
|
|
- Recommendations to relevant WGs or as SEP proposals
|
|
|
|
## Contribution Guidelines
|
|
|
|
### Documenting Approaches and Findings
|
|
|
|
When adding experimental findings or new approaches:
|
|
|
|
- Include enough detail for others to reproduce or evaluate
|
|
- Note which clients and servers were tested
|
|
- Be explicit about what worked, what didn't, and what remains untested
|
|
- Attribute community input with GitHub handles and link to the source where possible
|
|
|
|
### Community Input
|
|
|
|
When adding quotes or input from community discussions:
|
|
|
|
- Attribute to the contributor by name and GitHub handle
|
|
- Link to the original source (Discord thread, GitHub comment, etc.) where possible
|
|
- Present input as blockquotes to distinguish it from editorial content
|
|
|
|
### Filing Issues
|
|
|
|
Use GitHub Issues for:
|
|
|
|
- Proposing new approaches or use cases
|
|
- Reporting gaps in documentation
|
|
- Tracking action items from meetings
