Current naming practice
EIP should focus on current naming practice. History behind the names should be moved to the discussions topic.
Naming History
We should document the history of the names (before it is lost), including a table with a list of network upgrades and links to the naming discussions & decisions.
We should also link to historical discussions on naming processes:
- Network upgrade naming: Ethereum Roadmapping Improvements - #12 by timbeiko
- Consensus layer naming: Eth2 protocol upgrade naming theme brainstorming · Issue #202 · ethereum/eth2.0-pm · GitHub & Result for issue #202: Eth2 protocol upgrade naming theme brainstorming? · Issue #215 · ethereum/eth2.0-pm · GitHub
- Official star names: Minimum Standard for Consensus Layer Star Names
Authors
I’d suggest including @timbeiko (current naming policy), @hwwang (consensus layer star names), myself (Eth Magicians naming signaling) & @leobago (IAU star names) as authors, along with the current ACD(C/E) call moderators @ralexstokes & @adietrichs.
