Questions/Issues for the TSC

Releases

  • Grid 0.3.3 - 4/1/2022

Overall Activity in the Past Quarter

Continued work on the design and began implementation of components for the 0.4 release. This includes a batch submitter, which submits batches to the DLT, and a queuer for this component to decide which batches the submitter will claim. A DLT monitor component will track the status of a submitted batch. Also, the REST API is undergoing redesign to support submitting batches as JSON. The batch store has also been designed to be updated to support all of these components. 

The main source of asynchronous engagement is now on Discord, while RFC PRs remain.

Current Plans

Current work is focused on implementing batch tracking within Grid. The main goal of this work is to make interaction with the DLTs simpler and more familiar for any user. Batch tracking within Grid maintains a robust history of a batch’s lifecycle. Overall, batch tracking includes several components that will oversee the submission of batches as well as monitor a batch after it has been submitted to a DLT. This functionality is planned for the Grid 0.4 release. 

Maintainer Diversity

Maintainers are the same as the previous quarter.

Contributor Diversity

Contributor diversity remains steady with previous quarters, with some share of the project's overall diversity coming from non-developer participation in their areas of expertise. 

Sponsoring organizations that are actively contributing to Grid include Cargill, Target, GS1, and Bitwise IO. Additional contributions come from individual contributors. 

There were a total of 5 contributors in the last quarter.
