An open discussion and prioritization of important issues with the Internet Computer that we believe should be addressed.
Each issue is labeled with our perception of its impact on the Internet Computer, how long it may take to implement, and a current assessment of its progress. Below is a loose explanation of each label's meaning. Feel free to challenge and improve these labels by opening issues with your constructive criticism.
Generally related to critical security features, anything that could be an existential threat to the existence of the Internet Computer or its applications, or anything that would provide absolutely enormous benefits.
These issues would be excellent additions to the Internet Computer, but are not absolutely critical to its success.
Generally, small or trivial improvements, or applications that ride on top of the Internet Computer. Though the proper functioning of applications is the purpose of the Internet Computer, we are more focused on issues that relate to the base layer protocols themselves.
