Consensus
- Testing a fix to RCHAIN-1031 - Getting issue details... STATUS with RCHAIN-3150 - Getting issue details... STATUS . This is a blocking bug for newly bonded validators.
- Support for wallet and node teams related to signing of deployments and rejection of unsigned deployments.
Cost accounting
- Last week's issue RCHAIN-3077 - Getting issue details... STATUS resolved and we are now complete for the implementation of common cost accounting in each tier of the interpreter, RCHAIN-2883 - Getting issue details... STATUS .
- Work in progress to complete the union of cost accounting and wallet to demonstrate deployments having a cost, RCHAIN-3135 - Getting issue details... STATUS , deduction of the cost from the deployer, and payment of the cost. Plan to demo this Wed., April 1.
Node
- Added new configuration options for node operators related to
--max-message-size` and--packet-chunk-size. We recommend using the default values. However, can forsee a need some node operators might have related to message size and streaming packets. Please see RCHAIN-3117 - Getting issue details... STATUS for more details. - Work in progress for RCHAIN-3152 - Getting issue details... STATUS to address concern for the possibility of a node, like bootstrap, rejecting new peers due to the current implementation of Kademlia.
RSpace
- Last week we discovered a critical issue to the success of mainnet related to how RSpace supports consensus and the ability to support long chains. The short-term fix is in and not a blocker to testnet-1. The long-term fix, and the one required for mainnet, is in progress and estimated to take 3 weeks. See RCHAIN-3138 - Getting issue details... STATUS for more details.

- Testnet support: Testing with testnet-1 infrastructure and monitoring in progress.
- Performance testing: Work in progress to automate the performance test harness on PR merge.
- Long-running tests: Work in progress to automate the the run of long-running tests, tests requiring 5+ hours to run, RCHAIN-3100 - Getting issue details... STATUS and RCHAIN-3150 - Getting issue details... STATUS .
