- johnisgood 1y agoIs there a graph for post-2022 data? I wonder if it kept its trajectory.
- Arathorn 1y agosure, i just genned a new one for you: https://matrix.org/~matthew/mscs.png https://matrix.org/~matthew/mscs.png The trajectory is the same, although obviously it's not ideal that the backlog grows at roughly the same rate as we merge/close them. Perhaps some day the Foundation will have enough $ to actually fund the spec core team to work on MSC review as their dayjob; meanwhile it's done in spare time or smuggled in as part of their dayjob. Meanwhile, the fact that MSCs are being opened as fast as ever shows that folks are trying to nudge the protocol along as much as ever.
- johnisgood 1y agoThank you! :)
- xorcist 1y agoRemember that their main criticism of XMPP was there is just too many protocols extensions and proposals! Turns out that maybe it was for good reasons.
- tcfhgj 1y agonever heard of that
- Arathorn 1y agothis is a good thing, right? spec change proposals is how the spec evolves - they literally turn into PRs to the spec.
