March 3rd, 2018
Welcome to the 9th Gridcoin State of the Network Report. The SotN Report is a fortnightly report organized by @parejan and @jringo. It compiles useful news and statistics that the community can use as they see fit.
(Apologies for being late this week!)
Community and News
Development
We have two updates. 3.7.8.0 fixes the forking bugs and 3.7.9.0 brings the NN to windows users. The former is the mandatory update and 3.7.9.0 is a leisure.
We now have a greylist process to help manage BOINC projects.
@Barton26 has been given the responsibility of test coordinator. This will hopefully smooth out the bug hunting and fixing process, along with testing before major releases.
Polls
Rob has proposed increase development reimbursement to $60/hr. The poll runs in the wallet until March 16th.
