In a recent exchange with Antoine Riard, the discussion touched upon several key points regarding the development and amendment of a proposal.

The initial anticipation was that outlining the scope of the proposal would generate suggestions for improvement. There's an acknowledgment of the need to refine parts of the proposal, specifically those mentioning a mission and addressing off-list correspondence. The conversation also brought up the consideration of incorporating a process for nominating Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) Editors. However, it was concluded that including this process within the current proposal would unduly expand its scope. Instead, it was suggested that this aspect be addressed in a separate BIP. The dialogue reflects a thoughtful approach to proposal development, emphasizing the importance of feedback and the willingness to make necessary adjustments to ensure clarity and focus in the proposal's objectives.
