2020 Q4 Hyperledger Iroha

Project

Hyperledger Iroha

Project Health

The development during the period has been a little slow, but community activities seem to be in order — people communicate in chats, receive their answers, everyone is acting appropriately and respectfully. Also, we have finished several Internship projects for the improvement of Hyperledger Iroha. 

Questions/Issues for the TSC

No issues at the moment. 

Releases

Hyperledger Iroha v1.2 Release Candidate 2

Overall Activity in the Past Quarter

Development was a little slowed down but at the same time, we managed to finish all the internship projects . Unfortunately, not all of them was finished successfully — 2 were terminated because of the lack of commitment from the students.

Chats are active even if the mailing list is not so much.

After the security audit and feedback from the community, we made several security fixes for the release.

Current Plans

Currently, we want to make a release with “1.2.0rc3” tag which will be thoroughly tested towards finding regression problems. After testing we will release version “1.2.0” with all the fixes, which could be a very stable and reliable milestone of the Hyperledger Iroha development.

After that we will start active development of the “2.0” version which will solve most of the current challenges — it is our longer-term plan. 

Maintainer Diversity

https://github.com/orgs/hyperledger/teams/iroha-maintainers/members  represents people who help maintain Iroha.

Contributor Diversity

A company that uses Iroha contributed Turkish translation of the Iroha documentation on which we started basing our l10n repo - currently in development of simpler scripts. 

Iroha Blockchain Explorer - a useful #nodejs and #docker solutions were contributed by diva.exchange

Is the Iroha Blockchain Explorer distinct? Or does it build on top of Hyperledger Explorer? Posted by tkuhrt at Oct 20, 2020 14:21

The report mentions " security audit and feedback from the community ". Do each of the project document these in a place/is there a central artefact of these across the projects? Posted by arsulegai at Oct 21, 2020 17:01

I believe it is a separate solution by diva.exchange team  Posted by SaraG at Oct 22, 2020 10:33

I would probably ask the TSC or HL team regarding their ways of accessing security information about the audits. About the community feedback — a user found an issue that we fixed. It does not seem to be a severe one.    Posted by SaraG at Oct 22, 2020 10:49
