| 69 | <p>The BitTorrent Community Forum coordinates the development of the |

| 70 | BitTorrent protocol suite and its reference implementation. It is the |
|---|
| 71 | wish of Bram Cohen that the BitTorrent mainline python implementation |
|---|
| 72 | remain open source and that the protocol development process be |
|---|
| 73 | modelled after the Python Enhancement Proposal (PEP) process <a class="footnote-reference" href="#python" id="id1">[1]</a>.</p> |
|---|
| 74 | <p>This document indexes all BitTorrent Enhancement Proposals (BEPs). |
|---|
| 75 | When a new proposal is submitted, one of the BitTorrent.org editors |
|---|
| 76 | assigns a BEP number and updates this index appropriately. Each |
|---|
| 77 | document has a number that never changes and the history of the |
|---|
| 78 | document is maintained in subversion <a class="footnote-reference" href="#svn" id="id2">[2]</a>.</p> |
