--- tags: hiring --- # EIP Editors Wanted 📜 Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) are at the core of Ethereum: they are the format by which both protocol and application-level standards get defined. Everything from DeFi (ERC20), to NFTs (ERC721) and the protocol itself (EIP-1559) relies on EIPs. Additionally, they are open for anyone to create, critique and implement. They represent Ethereum's permisionless nature. To keep this process working smoothly, EIP editors are needed. These people review EIPs to ensure that they meet a certain quality threshold and fit the template requirements. Additionaly, they help newcomers with the process and, most importantly, help evolve the EIP process so that it continues to best serve Ethereum. Over the past few years, several prominent editors have moved on to other endeavors, creating a need for new contributors to step up. While some have (MicahZoltu, @lightclient) the amount of EIP submissions during this period has also grown substantially. New editors are very much welcome! At a high-level, responsibilities of editors include: * Making sure EIPs are well-formatted and technically complete. * Ensuring that EIPs meet a minimum "quality bar". * Working with authors to get new EIPs into the repo. * Ensure EIPs submitted are related to Ethereum. * Merge EIPs the auto-merger bot misses. You likely are a good fit for the role if you meet some/most of these requirements: - Understand Ethereum at least at an intermediate level. - Understand the difference between a Standard and a good idea. - Understands what content is appropriate in a Standard. - Understands GitHub. - A good communicator. - Able to handle contentious discourse in a calm and civil manner. The time commitment for EIP editor ranges from 1 to 20 hours per week, and focusing on areas where you have expertise is an option (e.g. ERCs vs. Core vs. Networking vs. Interface EIPs). Stipends are available for candidates for whom volunteering is a blocker. If you would like to become an editor, join the Ethereum Cat Herders' #eip-editors Discord channel [here](https://discord.gg/wyWEva5g4p).

Besu Client Incentive Program - August 2023 Changes

Important note: this program superceeds any previous version of the Besu Client Incentive Program, including the one publicly shared on the Hyperledger Besu Wiki. [toc] Context The Ethereum Foundation's Client Incentive Program aims to incentivize client teams to build performant software for use on the Ethereum mainnet. Generally, client implementation are maintained by a single organization, and CIP grants have been offered to the organizations who maintain these clients. Due to its different maintainership structure, Hyperledger Besu's program was designed to accomodate a more diverse set of contributors. A version of the Hyperledger Besu CIP refleting this is available here.
