The LLVM RFC document I link to says "The proposal should be posted to the appropriate forum on [Discourse](https://discourse.llvm.org/).", so they will at least know where to post an RFC.  As far as determining if an RFC is warranted, I'm not sure we need to expressly say where to ask that question here. Further down in this document, there are sections that describe the use of Discourse and Slack. Worst case, they put up an RFC that isn't that big a change and it's a quick yes or no.
