Also one problem we have now with the RFCs is feedback not being taken into account because it does not match the author ideas.
In a previous discussion, I backed the idea of encouraging all RFCs to have multiple authorship. The idea that an RFC "belongs" to a single sponsor can lead to defensive / competitive solutions, rather than collaborative ones. The RFCs are hosted on a wiki, a platform literally invented to foster ad hoc collaboration; they should be drafted, re-drafted, edited, and re-shaped.
This could actually form part of the guidelines: "Do not treat an RFC as your personal property to be defended against the community; rather, treat it as an offering of effort which the community will help you shape". (I haven't spent long thinking about that wording - feel free to improve it.)
