Ouroboros Peras

Part of the team is on holidays this week. The rest of us focused on:

  • We reached a point where our integration branch compiles all the way through, passing all the existing tests. From there, we started working in two directions:

  • We joined the Consensus weekly meeting to discuss the implications of ticking the node state across multiple epochs at once. This is something that currently happens on several test-suites, but should never happen in production. This allowed Peras to be lenient and safely ignore such cases by reinitializing its internal state.

  • We werged ouroboros-consensus#2107 to fix a bunch of issues in the Genesis tests, that were unearthed during Peras development.

  • We continued iterating on the logistics of the next part of the project (making Peras mainnet-ready), focused on understanding missing requirements and defining suitable milestones.
