Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository’s existing documentation structure and any current references to Fluss Improvement Proposals. Define the proposal lifecycle, required format, submission process, and review criteria in a contributor-facing guide. Done means a newcomer can understand how to prepare and submit a FIP and how review proceeds.
