Description

Take a couple paragraphs to describe the change, motivations and link out to any design documents. It is especially important to highlight any customer requirements or deadlines.

// As a Java Library most proposals will include a code example

We expect proposals to be used to bounce ideas off the community before you have secured budget for the work. This is your chance to ask for a sanity check, confirm the technical approach and see if you forgot anything (such as documentation or QA requirements). Please present this proposal requirement to your management or customer as a way to reduce risk.
