New 'standard' transaction forms would be perfect candidates for BEPS. I think we aught to have a formal proposal to separate the protocol version from the client version, too.
-- Does anybody besides me think maybe we should name them something other than "BEP" ? I'm worried we'll regret it in two years when a google for "BEP003" takes you to the BitTorrent EPs instead of the BitCoin EPs. Maybe "BIP" == Bitcoin Improvement Proposal or "PEB" == Proposal to Enhance Bitcoin or "BER" == Bitcoin Enhancement Request I think I like "BIP" (PEB sounds like a diet soda, and I don't know if BER should be pronounced "bear" or "beer"). I generally don't care about names, but it seems like a little planning now might save some confusion later. And I don't want the BitTorrent folks to get pissed off at us for 'stealing' their acronym, either. -- -- Gavin Andresen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA Learn about the latest advances in developing for the BlackBerry® mobile platform with sessions, labs & more.
