Each NEP must have a champion - someone who writes the NEP using the style and format described below, shepherds the discussions in the appropriate forums, and attempts to build community consensus around the idea.

Vetting an idea publicly before going as far as writing an NEP is meant to save the potential author time. Asking the NEO community first if an idea is original helps prevent too much time being spent on something that is guaranteed to be rejected based on prior discussions (searching the Internet does not always do the trick). It also helps to make sure the idea is applicable to the entire community and not just the author. Just because an idea sounds good to the author does not mean it will work for most people in most areas where NEO is used. Examples of appropriate public forums to gauge interest around your NEP include [https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO the NEO subreddit], [https://github.com/neo-project/proposals/issues the Issues section of this repository], and [https://discord.io/neo the NEO Discord]. In particular, [https://github.com/neo-project/proposals/issues the Issues section of this repository] is an excellent place to discuss your proposal with the community and start creating more formalized language around your NEP.

Once the champion has asked the NEO community whether an idea has any chance of acceptance a draft NEP should be presented as a pull request. This gives the author a chance to continuously edit the draft NEP for proper formatting and quality. This also allows for further public comment and the author of the NEP to address concerns about the proposal.
