Project:Requests for comment
Hypothetically, a request for comment would occur when informal consensus-gathering fails to yield a satisfactory outcome and a more formal decision-making process is necessary (i.e. a decision can't be deferred indefinitely).
One of the principles of Librarybase is that "Librarybase should be governed by clear processes accessible to all users." This means that, for a valid request for comment to take place, there first must be an agreed-upon process for doing so. Therefore, we first would have to decide by consensus what our process for holding RFCs is. This way, the process is ultimately derived from community consensus.
