This document describes the different ways you can get involved and stay informed about Fuchsia.
The Fuchsia project prioritizes features and enhancements that support our development community. Read the Fuchsia roadmap to get a high-level understanding of the various projects being considered within Fuchsia.
The Requests for Comments (RFC) process is intended to provide a consistent and transparent path for making project-wide technical decisions.
RFCs are documents that inform and build on the technical direction of the Fuchsia project. RFCs can be proposed by anyone in the community. Using an RFC, a Fuchsia community member can submit an idea or technical concept for broader review or consideration. For more information, see Fuchsia RFCs.
To see a complete list of accepted and rejected RFC proposals, see Accepted proposals and Rejected proposals.
To stay up-to-date with RFCs that are still in progress, you can bookmark this saved search
that lists any open Gerrit change in the rfcs directory.
If you want to create a proposal that you want the Fuchsia Eng Council to review, see Creating an RFC.
