Please let's not abuse TER for this purpose. RFCs are one-off proposals 
and not really useful for the TER users. I'd rather setup a 
list/newsgroup for this where every RFC gets its own thread and no other 
threads are allowed until a certain deadline. Discussion of RFCs takes 
place in these threads and everything is nicely arranged, searchable and 
archived.

Once a project can be started, it can use a wiki or project management 
tool or whatever for organizing information.

Cheers,
Michael
