@crypto_fruit I think it should be "ready to be considered for mainnet" in the next few weeks. See this checklist for what's left to do: github.com/ethereum/pm/blβ¦
We want to get the "Client Level Open Issues" done before we present it on AllCoreDevs.
@crypto_fruit As you can see on the list, there is only one issue outstanding. We have preliminary results indicating that it should be OK (hackmd.io/@timbeiko/1559β¦), but next week we're running a proper test.
@crypto_fruit After that, I'd be comfortable proposing 1559 for inclusion to core developers. If everyone agrees, then it would be a candidate for the next network upgrade, and those usually happen every 6-9 months. We'll probably have one over the summer.
This is the equivalent of the previous "Hardfork Meta" EIPs that we had for previous hard forks.
Where we're at right now is that we need one more PR merged into Geth for EIP-2718/2930, then we can set up YOLOv3 and start looking at blocks for testnets.
First on the call, @adietrichs gave an update on his work about transaction pool management. His latest writeup is available here: hackmd.io/@adietrichs/15β¦
The document is quite short, and worth reading, but here are the main takeaways with regards to mining β
Nethermind going first: EIP-2929 now passes all tests, and they are waiting for some final specification decisions for EIP-2930 & 2718. Everything is ready ππ»
Besu: everything is implemented, and the team is working on testing for 2930 β
OpenEthereum: everything should be ready π
Geth: EIP-2930/2718 is still remaining, and then there are still a few small issues to fix. @lightclients is leading the implementation, and says it should be up to spec. Going into the details on the call now about the final tweaks πΊ
