Membership vote on BU Improvement Processes

Five BUIPs are open for voting

Please reply to this thread

Votes are for/against.
Votes can be in the same message e.g. "for x,y,z" or "against a,b,c" where x,y,z etc are BUIP numbers.

Technical BUIPs
BUIP023: Miner block creation latency optimization [funded]
BUIP033: Parallel Validation

Operational BUIPs
BUIP034: Ecosystem Outreach for Onchain Scaling [funded]
BUIP035: New Bitcoin Unlimited Website [funded]
Membership BUIP
BUIP036: New Members for Election #3
All are considered together i.e. "BUIP036 FOR" or "BUIP036 AGAINST"
Exceptions may be identified by using list number and +/- to include or exclude e.g. -88 +99
BUIP036 is considered as counted last so new members may not vote on the BUIPs concurrent with this.

Votes need to be signed.


Please get involved. Bitcoin Unlimited is the start of a new paradigm where the membership decides on the admission of new members and operational changes requiring expenditure of funds.

Might be nice if we could set up some sort of automated membership 'call to vote'. The standard 5 day period is quite a short timeframe, so membership turnout may begin to suffer?

Exciting progress so far. Great work.

@freetrader: Thanks - corrected now.
@lunar: Yes, I do often send reminders, but also try to strike a balance to avoid hassling people.

BUIP034 FOR

This vote isn't signed yet, partly because I don't have a public key posted anywhere. Are we just signing with any private key we want? What's the system here? (sorry for the rookie question, I'm sure it's explained somwhere already)

@chriswilmer: ideally, you're supposed to sign with a private key for a bitcoin address that you've already associated with your identity in some way. Eventually, we will require new members to specify their "signing address" when they join. We'll also post all of the members' signing address to the Bitcoin Unlimited website shortly.

If you don't have any address that's already associated with your identity that you'd like to use, just make up a new one now and use that going forward.

BUIP023: ACK, but I'd prefer if in the future improvements like this are tested / simulated first before they go into development, as it is unclear how big the effect is.
BUIP033: I don't understand how this feature improves Bitcoin. So I have to refuse to vote on it. I will ACK or NACK if I know better.
BUIP034, BUIP035, BUIP036: ACK.

awemany votes on BUIPs, Nov. 9th 2016:

BUIP023 AGAINST (I am, however, totally willing to be convinced by a
resubmission of this supplemented with preliminary test data. I just think
we should be careful with money.)

I am not familiar with @deadalnix.

Moving forward from this day* I will only consider casting a vote For a new member if the applicant can confirm and reply to the flowing:
  1. you've read and comprehend the Bitcoin Unlimited: Articles of Federation
  2. can give some critical feedback on
    1. one principal you mostly agree with and why
    2. one principal you think can be improved on and why
  3. and an appropriate (and original) screening question to ask new applicants to prevent introducing bad apples to the membership.
* subject to revision.
