Fediverse Enhancement Proposals (FEP) discussion and tracker.

Introduction

Discussing an existing FEP

FEPs are maintained in the Codeberg Fediverse-Enhancement-Proposals repository.

To each FEP there, a local topic here is tracked below, under the fep tag and another tag named after the FEP code, e.g., fep-a4ed. Everyone can discuss FEPs here and propose changes in the repository.

Making a New Proposal

A FEP usually follows from a conversation. Once the conversation starts shaping up, it’s time to make a formal submission. Once the newly created FEP is available from the repository, a new topic is created in the #activitypub:fep category by @activitypub.hosts.

See How to create a FEP topic

Published FEPs

Once a FEP is FINAL, the draft tag is replaced by a final tag, and the FEP content can be pasted to the first post (retaining the original link to the repository) to be published. The published page will be available at, e.g., /pub/fep-a4edc7b-the-fediverse-enhancement-proposal-process, and can be referenced in documentation.

FEP Tracker

The FEP trackers watches the FEP repositories to create an up-to-date index.
