Project Health
We are still continuing working as 2 teams – Iroha 1 and Iroha 2. Both teams develop features, fix issues, talk to the community. Still, once in 2 weeks we meet for our community meeting (where anyone could attend). Iroha 2 is planning to show their first working version soon, Iroha 1 constantly improving the production-ready versions and implemented a couple of very nice features to increase the performance and experience. We have questions from the community on various integrated projects which we might need to discuss soon (e.g using Burrow or Ursa).

Made a release of 1.4 - rc1 (tag is ready for rc2 as well - just needs to be published as a release)
Added the feature of syncing node
Healthcheck
Fixes on the memory consumption and others
Iroha v2:
Improved performance
Added prometheus metrics for profiling
Integrated WASM to support more smart contracts
Integrating triggers

Comments:
Arnaud mentioned that he communicated with the Iroha community that Burrow has been deprecated. These may be the conversations that you are referring to. I wanted to make sure that this is the case. Posted by tkuhrt at Feb 08, 2022 15:21 |
| Sara Garifullina – That's great to hear that Iroha 2 is planning to show their first working version soon. We're happy to coordinate with the team to help them share this on Hyperledger's channels. And if they have interest in connecting with people who'd like to contribute, we could organize a contribution campaign around this. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to talk more about that.
