+> **Decision body and submission directory.** During the `0.x` benevolent-dictator phase the **core team** acts as the EEIP decision body; from `v1.0` this role transfers to the elected **TSC**. Some earlier documents (e.g. `docs/eeips/EEIP-0001-core-base.md`) refer to this body as the *Standards Committee* — these names denote the same role. All EEIPs are submitted to the **`docs/eeips/`** directory (there is no `proposals/` directory); `eep.dev/proposals` is the public web mirror of that directory.
