Let the change control system do what the change control system was designed to do. It is entirely redundant to store change history in the EIP itself and it just adds an ever growing clutter to an already too long (IMO) process description. If anyone wants to see the history they easily can. Also, the history section said to see the history button in the top right of this EIP but that only works if you view this EIP from GitHub, not from any other interface.
This has been discussed a few times. The main problem is that editors have a challenge finding EIP authors and getting their response, unless there is a clear GitHub username. This is blocking a lot of outstanding change requests.
I'm updating EIP statuses according to #2996. The mappings are as follows:
```
Draft => Draft
Last Call => Last Call
Accepted => Final
Final => Final
Superseded => Final
Abandoned => Withdrawn
Rejected => Withdrawn
Active => Living
```
The proposed Status to changes to EIP-1 inline with clarifiying the EIP repo as soley a standardization body.
Decisions made during the 17th EIPIP meeting. ethereum-cat-herders/EIPIP#33
I have gone through and updated all existing EIPs to match this rule, including EIP-1.
In some cases, people were using markdown citations, I suspect because the long-form was a bit verbose to inline. Since the relative path is quite short, I moved these to inline but I wouldn't be opposed to putting them back to citation format if that is desired by the authors.
In doing the migration/cleanup, I found some EIP references to EIPs that don't actually exist. In these cases I tried to excise the reference from the EIP as best I could.
It is worth noting that the Readme actually already had this rule, it just wasn't expressed properly in EIP-1 and the "Citation Format" section of the readme I think caused people a bit of confusion (when citing externally, you should use the citation format).

It appears that the format `EIP-X` is preferred to `EIPX`:
```console
$ grep "EIP-[0-9]+" * | wc -l
373
$ grep "EIP[0-9]+" * | wc -l
118
```
Also note that several of the `EIPX` references are coming from `index.html` and `EIPS/eip-1.md`.
```console
$ grep "EIP[0-9]+" index.html | wc -l
4
$ grep "EIP[0-9]+" EIPS/eip-1.md | wc -l
13
```
I have updated `index.html` and `eip-1` accordingly.

* Changes EIP-1 wording to focus on technicals not community sentiment.
All of the recent changes to the EIP process have been made to ensure that the EIP process is a technical one, and not one of sentiment analysis. There is a lot of discussion going on with regards to how we can improve the process and get valid community sentiment analysis pre-fork, but there doesn't exist a complete solution yet at this time (just proposals).
It appears that the Last Call PR introduced sentiment analysis into the process, which I do not believe was intended. From my recollection of the discussions around the Last Call stuff, the goal wasn't to fundamentally change how governance works, but rather to ensure that EIPs don't get stuck indefinitely in limbo.
This change simply removes the sentiment analysis wording from the process and makes it more clear that the EIP process is about gauging technical feasibility, not making judgement calls as to whether or not a thing is a good idea or not.
