RFC (Request for Comments) for the UTCP

Hi community,
Thanks a lot for sharing your support for the UTCP launch. Since our goal behind the UTCP (in addition to the technical elegance) is that no single organization should have any control over the protocol that governs agent tool calling, therefore the main contributors behind UTCP don't belong to a single company or country, for that matter.
To make it even more grassroots and community-driven, we've also launched a RFC (Request for Comments). Please check it out, and let's collectively build a kickass protocol for agent tool calling:
https://www.utcp.io/RFC
Also, if you'd like to contribute, please reach out. Or just drop a on the GitHub to keep the flywheel going.
