SIPs follows this pattern: 

  • DISCUSS
  • VOTE (with three +1 votes sufficient for passage, but strong community support is important) 
  • TRACK (report back to community on progress) 
  • CLOSE (once done or if abandoned) 


NOTICE to Community -  

In other Apache Top Level Projects there is the notion of a SIP (Significant Improvement Proposal).  The SIP is intended to signal that "hey, pay attention, this is important".  It does not apply to small code changes, or to features, but rather to architecture or testing frameworks, or significant efforts to be undertaken.    

A Fineract-SIP should have the following things:   

Title: Specific Idea

Summary
     the TL;DR 

Status  

Under Discussion, Proposed, VOTE, Accepted/Rejected, Under Development, Stalled, Completed 
       NOTE:  This is per our normal process of Discussion, Proposal, Vote and then takes it to the next step of tracking the SIP over time.
