- Root cause and solution to the "mixed node" problem: Indy Node issue 1769
- It's worse than expected,,,,
- A flag was added to the 20.04 based branch to set default ordering to sorted ordering, this unblocks the creation of new Ubuntu 20.04 networks.
- Next step. Explore a new config transaction to signal point in time events. Modeled to be generic for other such issues, complete with helpers in the code to detect and cache the txns.
- Transactions handling and caching could all be generic. Only concrete implementation(s) (plugins) needed would be for the specific transaction types, such as the ordering switchover point we need now.
- Timing of the fixes/release:
- Decision point - Do we release 1.13.x with just compatibility ordering or wait until we have a mechanism to be able to switch to sorted ordering?
- The group decided we should investigate the new config transaction proposal more and discuss the releases again in 2 weeks when we know more about implementation effort.
- Decision point - Do we release 1.13.x with just compatibility ordering or wait until we have a mechanism to be able to switch to sorted ordering?
- Need volunteers to start looking into the proposed design.
