"Proposed Who Is Hiring Spec"
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9636104
I don't actually like that proposal[1] very much as it stands -- but perhaps moving discussion/pull-requests there would be useful? (I've not yet added my own comments there, but now with two threads on the subject on hn, I'm seeing the need to consolidate, if we want to get a wide range of contributions, and try to gravitate to the "best" solution...).
[ed: ah, I see I'm replying to the author here... I was a bit quick. Anyway -- the point of discussing a spec with a tool that support pull-requests/diffs etc still stands -- and I think it might be a good idea.]
