  - We also don't jump straight to PRing against the spec itself, as it's much faster to iterate on a proposal in freeform document form than in the terse and formal structure of the spec.
  - In the proposal, please clearly state the problem being solved, and the possible solutions being proposed for solving it and their trade-offs.
  - Proposal documents are intended to be as lightweight and flexible as the author desires; there is no formal template; the intention is to iterate as quickly as possible to get to a good design.
- make a new issue at https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues, whose description should list the metadata as per below.
+- make a new issue at https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues (or modify an existing one), whose description should list the metadata as per below.
 - Gather feedback as widely as possible from the community and core team on the proposal.
  - The aim is to get maximum consensus on the trade-offs chosen to get an optimal solution.
-  - Iterating on the proposal and getting consensus can sometimes be time-consuming; an impartial 'shepherd' can be assigned to help guide the proposal through this process.
- Once the proposal has consensus and passed review, you **must** show an implementation to prove that it works well in practice, before before a spec PR will be accepted.  Iterate on the proposal if needed.

+- Once the proposal has sufficient consensus and passed review, you **must** show an implementation to prove that it works well in practice, before before a spec PR will be accepted.  Iterate on the proposal if needed.
 - Finally, please make a new spec PR which includes the proposed changes against https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/tree/master/specification.  This will then be reviewed and hopefully merged!

 The process for handling proposals is described in the following diagram. Note that the lifetime of a proposal is tracked through the corresponding labels for each stage in the `matrix-doc issue tracker <https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues>`_.
