# EIP The Ethereum Improvement Process. EIPs propose and discribe changes made to Ethereum Protocol. People wishing to submit EIPs first should propose their idea or document as a PR. After discussion it will be published here. We are fairly liberal with approving EIPs and try not to be too involved in decision making on behalf of the community. Having a EIP here does not make it a formally accepted standard until its status becomes Active. For a EIP to become Active requires the mutual consent of the community. Those proposing changes should consider that ultimately consent may rest with the consensus of the Ethereum users. # Contrubuting First review [EIP-1](EIPS/eip-1.mediawiki). Then clone the reposistory and add your EIP to it. There is a [template EIP here](eip-X.mediawiki). Then submit a Pull Request to Ethereum's [EIP reposistroy](https://github.com/ethereum/EIP). # Current EIPS | Number | Title | Type | Status | | ------------- |---------------| -----:| -------| | [1](EIPS/eip-1.mediawiki) | EIP Purpose and Guidelines | Meta | Draft |
