+status: Draft
+type: Meta 
+created: 2019-04-09
+requires : 233
+---
+## Simple summary
+
+To describe a formal process of selection of EIPs for upcoming network upgrades (hardfork).
+
+## Abstract
+
+This proposal will help decouple the EIP process and the network upgrade process by following a new process of EIP selection for the upcoming upgrade in the Eth1.0-spec repository.
+
+## Motivation
+
+This meta EIP provides a general outline process to propose, discuss, and track the progress of EIPs for upcoming hardfork and clearly state the selection of proposal for a network upgrade. Whereas, in the present process, for a core EIP,  it is difficult to draw a line between the end of an EIP process (final state) and the beginning of the formal selection of proposals for a network upgrade.
+
+## Specification
+
+A Meta EIP should be created and merged following the process mentioned in [EIP-233](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-233.md).
+
+###  EIP selection process for for CFI
+
+#### Preconditions to be proposed for consideration
+* Type of EIP -  Core 
+* Status of EIP - Any status between Draft to Final (ref: EIP-1)
+
+#### Proposing an EIP
+* If you're an author, and still vetting the idea, please follow the guidelines mentioned in [EIP - 1](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-1.md#eip-work-flow) to formalize your idea into an EIP.
+* Once an EIP/Pull request (at EIP GitHub) is created, open a new issue at [Eth1.0-specs repository](https://github.com/ethereum/eth1.0-specs) referring "EIP# to be considered for CFI". This can be created at any stage of the EIP process.
+* It will be then picked up by the Hardfork coordinators and added as Proposed EIP for CFI in the [project board](https://github.com/ethereum/eth1.0-specs/projects/1).
+* The author/proposer then adds it to the agenda of the next AllCoreDev meeting. 
+
+#### Socializing an EIP
+* Open a discussion thread, preferably at EthMagician. Share it in the Ethereum [allcoredevs Discord](https://discord.gg/PqxkpE), Reddit, and twitter (if need be).
+* Show up in the All core dev meetings for EIP to be introduced to the client teams. 
+* Show up in an episode of '[Peep an EIP](https://github.com/ethereum-cat-herders/PM/projects/2)' to share the importance, need, and application of the proposal in simple terms for community understanding. (Optional).
+
+#### Reviewing an EIP
+The author or champion may reach out to [EIP Editors](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-1.md#eip-editors) or Hardfork coordinator for help in review the EIP, if not already reviewed. HF coordinator may coordinate with EIP Editors based on the interest/availability.
+
+#### Network upgrade process tracker
+The tracker is created at [Eth1.0-spec Projects](https://github.com/ethereum/eth1.0-specs).
+
+| № | CFI applied  | CFI approved |CI devnet waiting room | CI devnet active| Testing green light | Public testnet| Mainnet |
+|---| -----|-------------|-----------| ------- | ------- | --------| -------|
+| 1 |
+| 2 |
+| 3 |
+
+### Network upgrade stages
+
+(Conditions for change in EFI stages)
+#### CFI applied 
+* EIP status - Draft-Final
+* An [issue](https://github.com/ethereum/eth1.0-specs/issues) created at Eth1.0-spec repo
+#### CFI approved
+* EIP status - Draft-Final
+* The decision to include in EFI in ACD meeting with the approval of at least 3 clients
+#### CI devnet waiting room
+* EIP status - Draft-Final
+* ACD agrees to include the EIP on the developers testnet 
+* Implementation in clients participating in the developer's testnet
+#### CI devnet active
+* EIP status - Draft-Final
+* At any time only one version of the devnet will be active.
+#### Testing green light
+* EIP status - Review-Final
+* EIPs on the latest version of the devnet 
+* Final list of EIPs for next upgrade
+* Add to the hard fork Meta EIP
+### Public testnet
+* EIP status - Last call-Final
+* Deploy on public testnet  
+#### Mainnet accepted
+* EIP status - Final
+* Deployed in a hardfork
+
+
+## Rationale
+
+The network upgrade process tracker for coordinating the network upgrade should help in the visibility and traceability of the scope of changes to the upcoming hardfork.
+
+## Implementation
+
+The proposed process is being followed for the upcoming 'Berlin upgrade' and the tracker is available at [Eth1.0-spec Projects](https://github.com/ethereum/eth1.0-specs/projects/1).
