Key materials

  • Summary

    • Ogmios and Kupo have two paths forward (both providing sufficient support to the community to progress with van Rossem hard fork readiness

      • Tools author is expected to review, adjust and make van Rossem compatible versions based on the original codebase in the week of 22nd June

      • Until that happens, forked versions of those tools (Ogmios v6.14.0.2 and Kupo v2.11.0.1) can be used to test for van Rossem compatibility

      • It was pointed out that for the time being, forked, van Rossem compatible repos, are going to continue to be considered as viable with IO backed maintenance

    • Issue being reported by Indigo labs, CPU overspend issue on preprod, was close with user confirmed they were using an older lucid with hard coded values which is unrelated to the node

    • Adoption of Node 11.0.1 and DBSync 13.7.1.0 continues to increasy steadily

      • According to PoolTool, nodes self reporting v11 are at 55% and blocks protocol version 11 in the current epoch is at 76%

      • According to Cexplorer, block production v11 in the last 5 days is at more than 85%

    • Readiness tracker has been updated:

      • Mainnet submission readiness checklist in the summary tab is having its readiness numbers that are based on items considered to be on the critical path

        • Exchanges readiness is represented as sum of liquidity stakes from each exchange that is considered ready

      • Few light wallets and few tools have become ready

      • Dapps continued and focused on adjustments and testing aginst Preview ahead of the PreProd fork where they will continue their testing efforts

    • PreProd hard fork initiation governance action was enacted on 10th June

    • Go/No-go Mainnet hard fork initiation governance action submission call date - 15th June

      • Readiness tracker mainnet submission checklist will be adjusted if needed, to be compliant with the hard fork submission policy

      • Guardrails

        • Technical Steering Committee considers no guardrail scripts changes have been made nor there were any constitutional changes in relation to van Rossem hard fork

        • Civics Committee reaffirms that they didnt find any issues in the "Consistency with Guardrails" section

      • Governance action metadata

        • Proposed mainnet hard fork initiation governance action metadata is 99% the same as the metadata used on Preview+PreProd with updates since PreProd have been

          • Citing updated performance report for node 11.0.1 (now available to be linked)

          • Citing the related correct protocol parameter change (was different per network)

          • Citing monday 15th June (go-no-go) as day when TSC and HFWG have formally recommended submission

          • Pending changes

            • inclusion of security audit reports for newer ledger rules, plutus implementation

            • fix to plutus data structure labelling

      • Security audit(s)

        • Any recent security security audits completed for the code going into this hard fork will be considered for inclusion in the van Rossem hard fork initiation governance action metadata

      • In the wake of any critical issue being potentially discovered on PreProd after the hard fork governance action has been submitted on mainnet, Technical Steering Committe will recommend Constitutional Committee to withhold their votes until the issues has been resolved

    • Plutus Cost Model parameter update governance action has been submitted on mainnet on 26th of May and its at ~55% approval with the reasonable expectation that it will end up being ratified and subsequently enacted in the next ~3 weeks

    • Comms team meetings are happening weekly and async communication continuously. The team that includes representatives from five big Cardano entities, is having a strong grip on a timely, precise, transparent and consistent messaging being made public

    • Risk log has been slightly adjusted and some risks had their likelihood reduced

      • Ogmios/Kupo maintenance and technical support has been added as a new risk considering the current path forward

  • Hard Fork Working Group communication channels

  • van Rossem Upgrade Update

  • van Rossem readiness tracker

Action items and next steps

  • Ryan: Draft and complete hard fork governance action metadata before the go/no-go call on Monday, 15th June

  • Ian/Larisa: Adjust messaging on Ogmios/Kupo path forward with forked one being considered as the right tool for the time being

  • Leonard: Check with John L. on the availability of Ogmios/Kupo docker versions

  • Bosko: Adjust readiness tracker if needed to make sure it correctly reflects hard fork submission policy

  • Bosko: Update hard fork working group on technical support documents status (process and resources tracker)
