Note that a new page create on the wiki in the RFC namespace comes with a template that gives some
guidance on how to write an RFC.
Lukas based it on my original Traits RFC, since that one was considered to be a nice example. At
least it was kind of complete with regard to the essential parts of an RFC:
- intro
- motivation
- full description (up-to-date following the discussions) of the proposed feature
- with examples and use cases
- summary of semantics
- a patch
And then based on discussion:
- FAQ or common misconceptions
- alternative proposals
- rejected features
- change log
Best regards
Stefan
