# SNS Improvement Protocol The Solana Name Service Improvement Protocol (SNS-IP) allows all community members to participate in the building process of SNS & makes it much more transparent. SNS-IPs can be found on Github: ### Accepted * [SNS-IP-1](https://github.com/Bonfida/sns-ip/blob/master/proposals/sns-ip-1.md): Proposal to standardize data encoding in SNS records * [SNS-IP-3](https://github.com/Bonfida/sns-ip/blob/master/proposals/sns-ip-3.md): Amends SNS-IP-2, proposes a new specification for on-chain records which can address concerns related to the staleness of records, as well as right of association to the linked resource when relevant ### Draft * [SNS-IP-4](https://github.com/Bonfida/sns-ip/blob/master/proposals/sns-ip-4.md): This SNS-IP describes the derivation of SNS subdomains (eg. `a.b.sol`). A subdomain is under the complete control of the parent domain's controlling entity. However, this control can be limited through the use of a community program called `sub-registrar`. This protects subdomain ownership while allowing the parent domain owner more freedom in how registration proceeds. ### Rejected * [SNS-IP-2](https://github.com/Bonfida/sns-ip/blob/master/proposals/sns-ip-2.md): Proposal to improve the handling of staleness and authenticy of records --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
