> Hi, all OpenDAL community members

> OpenDAL has using the RFC (Request for Comments) discussion system for
> some time now, but we still need to reach a consensus on certain
> details.
>
> Therefore, I would like to discuss two questions:
>
> 1. When we should initiate RFC discussions?
> 2. How to determine whether to accept an RFC or not?
>
> RFC is a proposal mechanism used to introduce new features,
> architectural changes, or important decisions. When someone has a new
> idea or suggestion, they can raise awareness and initiate discussions
> by proposing an RFC. An RFC should include a clear problem statement,
> objectives and motivations, as well as specific solutions or
> recommendations. This helps others understand the context and goals of
> the problem and provides a foundation for meaningful discussions.
>
> Regarding when to initiate RFC discussions, I suggest considering the
> following scenarios:
>
> 1. Significant feature changes: When there is an idea or suggestion
> for a major feature change, initiating an RFC allows for comprehensive
> discussion and review. This ensures that significant changes are
> carefully considered and receive broad recognition.
> 2. Architecture adjustments: If there are suggestions for adjusting or
> refactoring the project's architecture, RFC can be used to evaluate
> and discuss the feasibility and impact of these changes.
> 3. Important decisions: For situations that require important
> decision-making, RFC provides a platform for brainstorming and allows
> others to provide their opinions and suggestions, ultimately reaching
> a consensus.
>
> As for determining whether to accept an RFC for discussion and
> ensuring that RFC discussions are efficient and valuable, I propose
> the following steps:
>
> 1. Idea proposal and pre-review: Before entering the formal discussion
> phase, we can have a pre-review stage. During this stage, we can
> carefully examine and evaluate the content of the RFC, raise
> questions, and provide suggestions. This helps identify potential
> issues and provides a better foundation for discussion.
> 2. Discussion and feedback: Once an RFC enters the formal discussion
> phase, we can initiate a pull request (PR) and engage in in-depth
> discussions about the content, feasibility, and impact of the RFC. It
> is encouraged for everyone to actively participate and provide
> constructive feedback and opinions. This allows for a comprehensive
> assessment of the merits and feasibility of the RFC.
> 3. Voting and decision-making: After the discussion phase, we can
> proceed with voting and decision-making based on the maintainer team's
> opinions and suggestions. This can be done through a simple majority
> principle or any other appropriate voting mechanism. The voting
> results will determine whether the RFC is accepted, and subsequent
> action plans will be decided accordingly.
>
> These are the recommendations I propose regarding RFC discussions.
>
> If you have any questions or suggestions regarding RFC discussions,
> please feel free to raise them.
