04 / Improve TSEP

A useful objection.
Evidence to move forward.

You can report an ambiguity, propose a counterexample or develop another implementation. Using the protocol does not require purchasing an Edikka service.

  1. State the problemExact version, control or rule, scope and observed outcome.
  2. Include what allows reviewShareable evidence, expected outcome and technical reference; remove secrets and private data.
  3. Make the discussion traceableOpen an issue or propose a change. Declare your role, interests and contribution licence.

Working version: 0.3.0-draft.9. Before a stable 1.0, the governance proposes independent review, replayable cases, an external implementation and independent co-maintainers. These are milestones to reach, not achievements claimed.
