-## Summary
-
-Make Daedalus rankings more fair and non-centralizing by modifying the ranking methodology.
-
 ## Abstract
 
-Modify the current ranking system by removing the centralizing Nash Equilibrium goal of the ranking methodology in order to give more fair rankings and improve the viability of the stake pool operator community and the network overall.  To do this we need to remove the stated goal of having k fully saturated pools and all other pools having no stake other than owner pledge, which goes against the Cardano goal of decentralization.

 There are two main reasons for changing the current ranking methodology:
 
-1. Allow for more than k successful stakepools.

-## Rationale

-Using this non-centralizing ranking methodology gives a more fair ranking of stakepools based on performance, pledge and saturation which will encourage delegators to choose better pools.

 It will also bring the rankings more in line with the general Cardano principle of increasing decentralization.
 
-## Backward Compatibility
+## Path to Active

+### Acceptance Criteria
 
-This proposal does not break backwards compatability because it is an offchain change.
+- [ ] One or more wallet software implements this new ranking approach.
 
-## Implementations
+### Implementation Plan
 
-If someone will show me where the current desirability equation is implemented in the code, I could produce an implementation of this change as a pull request.
+- [ ] Author has offered to produce an implementation of this change as a cardano-wallet / Daedalus pull request if shown where the current desirability equation is implemented in the code.
