Hardfork Coordination
Ethereum Cat Herders will propose a process for the collection of EIP for consideration in the Istanbul HF to the core dev in upcoming Friday call. Based on the decision made we hope to coordinate and make a seamless and successful Istanbul upgrade.
You may follow update on the Istanbul HF at ECH GitHub.
A New Ethereum.org Website
- A GitHub repo has been created to start this: https://github.com/ethereum-dot-org.
- Lane has taken the lead on this initiative and the Aragon team will potentially also provide resources. No team is announced as of yet.
Feel free to participate and contribute in designing & development of the Ethereum.org portal at GitHub by adding issues and pull request.
Ethereum Developer Portal Designs/Structure
- Initial designs and content structure have been proposed by Charles St.Louis. However, the plans to build a developer have been put on pause since there may be overlap with the new Ethereum.org website initiative.
Task Management
ECH task list has been created here. You may visit to look into open/upcoming tasks. You may also reach out the coordinators to offer your help if any task is of your interest.
Governance
Charles Plant St.Louis (@CPSTL) will be joining Hudson and Lane as a multisig keyholder for Ethereum Cat Herders.
Eth2.0 coordination
We’ve been asked to help with coordination for Eth 2.0 going on the testnet soon. Hopefully, next week we will have more updates on it.
