  1. If you don't have the necessary permissions for creating a new page, please ask on the development mailing list.
  2. Create a page which is a child of this one. Take the next available SIP number and give your proposal a descriptive heading. e.g. "SIP 42: Solr API v3".
  3. Fill in the sections as described above
  4. Start a [DISCUSS] thread on the mailing list. Please ensure that the subject of the thread is of the format [DISCUSS] SIP-{your SIP number} {your SIP heading}. Discussion can also happen on the WIKI page for the SIP by using Confluence inline commenting system (Mark the words you want to comment and clik the comment icon that pops up).
  5. When feedback iteration trails off on the DISCUSS thread, move to either adopt the proposal.  To do this you can either:
    1. rely on lazy consensus - announce your intention to proceed with the SIP as written unless there are any further objections, then wait 3 business days for readers to object or request an explicit VOTE instead.
    2. Alternatively, you can jump right to calling a formal VOTE.  Create a VOTE thread that points readers to your proposal and ask for
    Once the proposal is finalized call a [VOTE] to have the proposal adopted. These proposals are more serious than ordinary code changes and more serious even than release
    1. votes. The criteria for acceptance is consensus (3 binding +1 votes and no binding vetoes)
    .
    1. .  Once a VOTE thread is created, add a link to the table below so the outcome can be tracked clearly.
  6. If the proposal was accepted, move the SIP from the "Under Discussion" table to the "Adopted" table below.  If the proposal failed to pass, move the SIP to the "Discarded" table.
  7. Implement the SIP.
  8. When implementation is complete, move the SIP to the "Implemented" table belowPlease update the SIP wiki page, and the index below, to reflect the current stage of the SIP after a vote. This acts as the permanent record indicating the result of the SIP (e.g., Accepted or Rejected). Also report the result of the SIP vote to the voting thread on the mailing list so the conclusion is clear.
