With one day left in the voting period, Referendum 44, with no contextual information provided, is failing. polkadot.polkassembly.io/referendum/44
Interestingly, if you don’t take conviction into account, more DOT has voted in favor of this ref than against. Even if conviction wasn't taken into account, though, due to adaptive quorum biasing, the required supermajority would not have been reached. wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-gov…
Are you interested in writing scripts to help you programatically interact with the Polkadot API? You can do that with the built-in JavaScript “mini-IDE” in Polkadot-JS Apps. polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=wss%…

Although there is no current parachain auction, numerous crowdloans are still active for the next auctions in this batch. Approximately 10.1% of all DOT are locked up for crowdloans or parachain slots.

Polkadot Decoded is next week, 19-20 May. See the lineup and register here: decoded.polkadot.network
If you are running a node and use binaries from Github, please update your v0.9.0 node with the latest one attached in the v0.9.0 release. The original binary was built with incorrect compile flags. If you build from source, this does not affect you.
Note that with the latest runtime, there is no restriction on when you can issue a transaction to nominate validators (on Polkadot and Kusama). The nomination still won't take effect until the next available election, though.
