+# Stacks Improvement Proposals (SIPs)
+
+The SIPs describe the design, implementation, and governance
+of the Stacks 2.0 blockchain.  The SIP process
+([SIP-000](./sips/sip-000/sip-000-stacks-improvement-proposal-process.md))
+describes how to make a SIP and get it ratified.  Anyone in the Stacks community
+may submit a SIP.

+## How to Get Involved
+
+There are several ways you can get involved with the SIP process:
+
+* **SIP Editor**.  SIP editors help SIP authors make sure their SIPs are
+  well-formed and follow the right process.  They help get SIPs ready for deep
+review by advancing it them from Draft to Accepted status.  If you want to become a SIP editor, 
+open an issue with your name and email to ask to be added to the list of SIP editors.
+
+* **Joining a Consideration Advisory Board**.  SIPs fall under the purview of
+  one or more considerations, such as "technical," "economic," "governance,"
+and so on.  A full list is in the `considerations/` directory.  Members of SIP
+consideration advisory boards use their domain expertise to give Accepted SIPs a
+deep read, and give the authors any/all feedback to help make the SIP workable.
+If you want to join a board, reach out to the board's chairperson via the
+listed contact information.
+
+* **Creating a Consideration Advisory Board**.  Anyone can create a
+consideration advisory board by opening a PR to create a new
+consideration track, and SIP authors can opt to have you review their work by
+adding your consideration to the SIP's list of considerations.  You are expected
+to vote on such SIPs in a fair and timely manner if you start a board.
+
+* **Steering Committee**.  The Steering Committee organizes the consideration
+  advisory boards and votes to advance Recommended SIPs to
+Activation-in-Progress status, and then to either Ratified or Rejected status.
+Once they are in the process of being activated,
+they use a SIP's Activation section to determine whether or not the Stacks
+ecosystem has ratified or rejected the SIP.  Joining this committee requires the
+consent of the Stacks Foundation board.
