[DISCUSS] AIP - Time for Airflow Improvement Proposals?

Lots of Apache projects use ?IPs - Whatever Improvement Proposal - to
document and gather consensus on large changes to the code base.  Some
examples:
   * Kafka Improvement Proposals (KIP) -
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Improvement+Proposals
  * Flink Improvement Proposal (FLIP) -
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Flink+Improvement+Proposals
  * Spark Improvement Proposal (SPIP) -
https://spark.apache.org/improvement-proposals.html

We've got a few changes that have been discussed, either on the
list/JIRA (good) or in private (bad -
https://incubator.apache.org/guides/committer.html#mailing_lists) that
are of a magnitude that they may benefit from some version of this
process.  Examples:
   * The in-progress plan to refactor out connectors and hooks (AIRFLOW-2732)
   * K8S deployment operator proposal
   * Initial Design for Supporting fine-grained Connection encryption


The benefits of this approach is that the design is hosted somewhere
less ephemeral and more editable than email.  It also provides a
framework for documenting and confirming consensus through the whole
community.

   What do y'all think?

Hey Jakob,

Are we going to start AIF for airflow? Currently it is a little bit hard to
find out the proposals for different enhancement. It would be great if we
could consolidate and put them in a central place(e.g like airflow wiki).

Thanks,
-Tao

+1, should we put them in airflow wiki space(like kafka(kip)) or google doc
or email?
