<h1 id="summary"><a class="header" href="#summary">Summary</a></h1>
|
|
<p>The "RFC" (request for comments) process is intended to provide a
|
|
consistent and controlled path for new features to enter the map renderer
|
|
and standard libraries, so that all stakeholders can be confident about
|
|
the direction the map renderer is evolving in.</p>
|
|
<p>This RFC is copied from <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs">rust-lang/rfcs</a>.
|
|
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Rust RFC process RFC! Thanks for the
|
|
great inspiration!</p>
|
|
<h1 id="motivation"><a class="header" href="#motivation">Motivation</a></h1>
|
|
<p>The freewheeling way that we add new features to maplibre-rs has been good for
|
|
early development, but for maplibre-rs to become a mature platform we need to
|
|
develop some more self-discipline when it comes to changing the system.
|
|
This is a proposal for a more principled RFC process to make it
|
|
a more integral part of the overall development process, and one that is
|
|
followed consistently to introduce features to maplibre-rs.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="detailed-design"><a class="header" href="#detailed-design">Detailed design</a></h1>
|
|
<p>Many changes, including bug fixes and documentation improvements can be
|
|
implemented and reviewed via the normal GitHub pull request workflow.</p>
|
|
<p>Some changes though are "substantial", and we ask that these be put
|
|
through a bit of a design process and produce a consensus among the maplibre-rs
|
|
community.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="when-you-need-to-follow-this-process"><a class="header" href="#when-you-need-to-follow-this-process">When you need to follow this process</a></h2>
|
|
<p>You need to follow this process if you intend to make "substantial"
|
|
changes to the maplibre-rs distribution. What constitutes a "substantial"
|
|
change is evolving based on community norms, but may include the following.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Any semantic or syntactic change to the map renderer that is not a bugfix.</li>
|
|
<li>Removing map renderer features, including those that are feature-gated.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Some changes do not require an RFC:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Rephrasing, reorganizing, refactoring, or otherwise "changing shape
|
|
does not change meaning".</li>
|
|
<li>Additions that strictly improve objective, numerical quality
|
|
criteria (warning removal, speedup, better platform coverage, more
|
|
parallelism, trap more errors, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Additions only likely to be <em>noticed by</em> other developers-of-maplibre-rs,
|
|
invisible to users-of-maplibre-rs.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>If you submit a pull request to implement a new feature without going
|
|
through the RFC process, it may be closed with a polite request to
|
|
submit an RFC first.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="what-the-process-is"><a class="header" href="#what-the-process-is">What the process is</a></h2>
|
|
<p>In short, to get a major feature added to maplibre-rs, one must first get the
|
|
RFC merged into the RFC repo as a markdown file. At that point the RFC
|
|
is 'active' and may be implemented with the goal of eventual inclusion
|
|
into maplibre-rs.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fork the repo https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-rs</li>
|
|
<li>Copy <code>rfc/0000-template.md</code> to <code>rfc/0000-my-feature.md</code> (where
|
|
'my-feature' is descriptive. don't assign an RFC number yet).</li>
|
|
<li>Fill in the RFC</li>
|
|
<li>Submit a pull request. The pull request is the time to get review of
|
|
the design from the larger community.</li>
|
|
<li>Build consensus and integrate feedback. RFCs that have broad support
|
|
are much more likely to make progress than those that don't receive any
|
|
comments.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Eventually, somebody on the maplibre-rs team will either accept the RFC by
|
|
merging the pull request, at which point the RFC is 'active', or
|
|
reject it by closing the pull request.</p>
|
|
<p>Who ever merges the RFC should do the following:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Assign an id, using the PR number of the RFC pull request. (If the RFC
|
|
has multiple pull requests associated with it, choose one PR number,
|
|
preferably the minimal one.)</li>
|
|
<li>Add the file in the <code>docs/src/rfc/</code> directory.</li>
|
|
<li>Create a corresponding issue on <a href="https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-rs">maplibre-rs repo</a></li>
|
|
<li>Fill in the remaining metadata in the RFC header, including links for
|
|
the original pull request(s) and the newly created maplibre-rs issue.</li>
|
|
<li>Communicate that given RFC is now considered 'active' on the chat platform of maplibre-rs.</li>
|
|
<li>Commit everything.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Once an RFC becomes active then authors may implement it and submit the
|
|
feature as a pull request to the maplibre-rs repo. An 'active' is not a rubber
|
|
stamp, and in particular still does not mean the feature will ultimately
|
|
be merged; it does mean that in principle all the major stakeholders
|
|
have agreed to the feature and are amenable to merging it.</p>
|
|
<p>Modifications to active RFC's can be done in followup PR's. An RFC that
|
|
makes it through the entire process to implementation is considered
|
|
'complete'; an RFC that fails after becoming active is 'inactive'.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="alternatives"><a class="header" href="#alternatives">Alternatives</a></h1>
|
|
<p>Retain the current informal RFC process. The newly proposed RFC process is
|
|
designed to improve over the informal process in the following ways:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Discourage non-actionable or vague RFCs</li>
|
|
<li>Ensure that all serious RFCs are considered equally</li>
|
|
<li>Give confidence to those with a stake in maplibre-rs development that they
|
|
understand why new features are being merged</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>As an alternative, we could adopt an even stricter RFC process than the one proposed here.
|
|
If desired, we should likely look to Python's <a href="http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0001/">PEP</a> process for inspiration.</p>

<ol>
|

<li>Does this RFC strike a favorable balance between formality and agility?</li>
|

<li>Does this RFC successfully address the aforementioned issues with the current
