SovereignStack Protocol Registry

Version: 2026.2 Last Updated: July 16, 2026 Maintained by: OASA Technical Steering Committee

Purpose

This registry tracks the lifecycle status of every protocol in the SovereignStack ecosystem. It enables ecosystem participants to understand which protocols are stable, experimental, or deprecated.

Protocol Lifecycle

Draft → Experimental → Beta → Stable → Deprecated → Historic

Lifecycle Requirements

Stage Requirements
Draft Published RFC, initial concept
Experimental Proof-of-concept implementation, basic tests
Beta Reference implementation, conformance test suite, 2+ compatible implementations
Stable Multiple interoperable implementations, security review, 6+ months in Beta
Deprecated Superseded by newer version, 12-month migration window
Historic No longer in use, documentation archived

Lifecycle Transitions

From To Requires
Draft Experimental RFC accepted, PoC passes smoke tests
Experimental Beta Reference implementation + conformance suite
Beta Stable 2 implementations interoperable, security audit
Stable Deprecated TSC vote, migration plan published
Deprecated Historic 12 months after deprecation

How to Add a Protocol

  1. Submit an RFC following RFC-0000
  2. Provide a protocol identifier (3–4 uppercase letters)
  3. Implement a proof-of-concept
  4. Submit a PR adding your protocol to this registry
