A browsable version of all current and draft XIPs can be found on the official XIP site.

Contributing

  1. Review XIP-1.
  2. Fork the repository by clicking "Fork" in the top right.
  3. Add your XIP to your fork of the repository. There is a template XIP here.
  4. Submit a Pull Request to XDAG's XIPs repository.

Your first PR should be a first draft of the final XIP. It must meet the formatting criteria enforced by the build (largely, correct metadata in the header). An editor will manually review the first PR for a new XIP and assign it a number before merging it. Make sure you include a discussions-to header with the URL to a discussion forum or open GitHub issue where people can discuss the XIP as a whole.

If your XIP requires images, the image files should be included in a subdirectory of the assets folder for that XIP as follow: assets/xip-X (for xip X). When linking to an image in the XIP, use relative links such as ../assets/xip-X/image.png.

Once your first PR is merged, we have a bot that helps out by automatically merging PRs to draft XIPs. For this to work, it has to be able to tell that you own the draft being edited. Make sure that the 'author' line of your XIP contains either your Github username or your email address inside . If you use your email address, that address must be the one publicly shown on your GitHub profile.

When you believe your XIP is mature and ready to progress past the draft phase, you should do one of two things:
