What is a HIP?
HIP stands for "Hiero Improvement Proposal". These improvement proposals can range from core protocol changes, to the applications, frameworks, and protocols built on top of the Hiero network and used by the community. The HIP author is responsible for building consensus within the community and documenting dissenting opinions, as well as tracking their HIP through the process outlined below.You can see the list of all HIPs on the official HIPs site.
What is Hiero?
Hiero is an open-source distributed ledger project under the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust (LF Decentralized Trust). Hiero builds upon the Hashgraph consensus algorithm created by Dr. Leemon Baird. The project provides a fast, fair, and secure environment for distributed ledger technologies. You can learn more about the Hashgraph Consensus Algorithm by reading the hashgraph algorithm whitepaper.Purpose
The goal of HIPs is to have a place to propose new features, to collect community thoughts and input on a particular issue, and further to document all these subject matters in one place. It's a great way to document these discussions and proposals here on GitHub, because any revisions made on these text files will be recorded.Qualifications
Each HIP should only be one single key proposal and/or idea. The idea should be focused and only issue to one subject matter to be successful. A HIP must meet certain minimum criteria: it must be clear and have a complete description of the proposed enhancement, the enhancement must represent a net improvement, the proposed implementation, if applicable, must be solid and must not complicate the protocol unduly.Before Submitting
- Evaluate your idea: consider why you'd like to request changes or
- Thoroughly look through those proposals already submitted to ensure there
- Ask the Hiero community first if your idea is original, or has
- Reevaluate your proposal to ensure sure the idea is applicable
