How EIPs get into an upgrade
Proposals move through inclusion stages as client teams evaluate them.
EIP Inclusion Process
PFI progresses to CFI, then SFI, then Included. PFI, CFI, and SFI can all exit to DFI.
- PFI
Proposed for Inclusion
EIPs proposed for this upgrade that are still under initial review by client teams.
- CFI
Considered for Inclusion
EIPs that client teams are positive towards. Implementation may begin, but inclusion is not yet guaranteed.
- SFI
Scheduled for Inclusion
EIPs that client teams have agreed to implement for the upgrade devnets. These are very likely to ship in the final upgrade.
- Included
Included
EIPs that are part of the activated upgrade on mainnet.
- DFI
Declined for Inclusion
EIPs that were proposed but declined for this upgrade. They may be reconsidered for future upgrades.
