To ensure interoperability between XRP (Ledger) core protocol, ecosystem applications, tools, pursuing a great user experience, the community (developers, users, etc.) should discuss and work towards agreement on certain implementation standards.

Please see CONTRIBUTING.md

When a standard moves to a folder + file(s) in the Code section of this repository, it should be added to the standards.toml file: https://github.com/XRPLF/XRPL-Standards/blob/master/standards.toml

Suggestions/Standards must be numbered and referenced in the following format: XLS-# where # is a natural number (without left padded zeros), called the Suggestion/Standard Number.

If a suggestion/standard requires a substantive revision and using the same number would result in confusion, a separator '.' may be added, e.g. XLS-1.1.

A suggestion/standard may be marked as a draft e.g. XLS-10d or XLS-1.2d if the author/s expect further revisions in the near term. After sufficient time without change the suggestion/standard can be referred to without the draft indicator.
