Add three unassigned Draft BIPs for the timestamp-boundary fix, the legacy sigops transaction limit, and coinbase locktime duplicate prevention. Attribute the new drafts to Jeremy Rubin, leave BIP54 and BIP53 unchanged, and copy each new draft's test vectors into its own auxiliary directory.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Looks reasonably complete. Is it your intention to propose the same mitigations as BIP54, or a somewhat different set?

This does look like a replication of three parts of BIP54. Would I be right to expect another document that bundles either these three parts or these three parts plus an alternative to the 64-byte mitigation? Unless these forthcoming documents were to propose something different than BIP54 in sum, I don’t see the point of splitting BIP54 and duplicating the content. |

As per discussion on #2175 (comment) this seems to be the favored approach.
@Christewart, I think it's worthwhile (separate from this) to make BIP-0053 have the same test vectors and spec languages as BIP-0054 for the 64 byte rule.
