RFC 1: RFC Process

Introduction

As the RISC-V community grows, it will need to decide on a process for defining RISC-V standards, enhancements, and extensions. One option is to use a GitHub repository such as this to capture proposals to enhance the RISC-V ISA or other aspects of the RISC-V project.

Proposal

  • Use a GitHub repository to host RISC-V RFCs
  • Use Markdown for RFCs
  • RFC authors will submit RFCs for review using GitHub pull requests
  • RFC discussion can occur on the isa-dev mailing list as well as GitHub

Alternatives

  • Phabricator instead of GitHub
  • GitLab instead of GitHub
  • reStructuredText instead of Markdown
  • LaTeX instead of Markdown
  • RFCs are submitted for review on isa-dev mailing list
  • All discussion occurs on isa-dev mailing list

Notes

RFC 1 will be fleshed out over time. Pull requests strongly encouraged.
