Ethereum developers are considering more and less hard forks

in #news5 years ago

Ethereum developers are considering implementing a more frequent and smaller hard drive, according to a joint bi-weekly meeting.

This issue was presented to other developers Tim Beiko on April 12, marking it as one of the most important topics of the meeting. The developer Alexey Akhun has already lobbied for more and less hardforks.

Beiko asked the others to express their opinion on whether they were open to the idea. The first three reactions were negative or evasive. For example, the developer, Joseph Delong, has described the period of three months as too short.

Martin Holst Swende would agree with such an option if it were not compulsory and it would be rather an open option for the realization of a hard forged if the goals were successfully completed. Another developer pointed out that they have a problem with the 6-month limit.

Beiko pointed out the pros and cons of this option during the discussion. The arguments in favor of this proposal include more frequent protocol updates, as well as the ability to separate concerns about the implementation of various features and the ability to better isolate changes while reducing update deployment times. In addition, the test process would probably be easier because there would be fewer EIPs (Ethereum Improvement Proposals) for testing and fewer EIP interactions for control.

For example, the fact that they leave enough time to assess security risks, require less frequent updates on the part of clients, and less frequent user coordination, are arguments in favor of less frequent and larger hard drives.
