Witnesses - please report in

[Thom]

I popped into the forum a few times but managed to miss this thread.

With all the Telegram chatter and being on the road my routine is a bit disrupted.

I've always admired your witness monitoring @fav, sorry if I failed to meet your criteria this time.

My priority is always on witness and seed node status, monitored directly at least twice a day. I also expect to see emergency alerts on telegram for urgent issues and real time missed block notifications.

You might consider that some witnesses such as myself are on the road after Anarchapulco conference and may not be monitoring the forum as usual tho they are nevertheless monitoring by other means.

I am always monitoring and prepared to take action as necessary. I saw no need, checked on my witness and seed nodes twice a day and all operating normally.

@kenCode also seems impatient concerning seeing witness improvements.

It also boils down to conventions, OF WHICH NONE ARE ESTABLISHED. Some live on Telegram, some like the forum, others only care about mumble. And what of Slack? I haven't heard much about that in a long while. There are no standards. Sigh :(

I know xman is  active

[fav]

obviously in.abit is the best witness with fastest response,
but you remove your vote because of he didn't report to a random person.
I doubt this is a Objective judgement

I'm well aware of his performance, but that doesn't exclude him.

I expect witnesses to be active on a daily basis in this part of the forum.

It's time to raise the bar since the committee voted for payment increase.

anyway, there are some meaning in this thread.
for those witness who  report in this thread but later than 24 hours,
I doubt your fast response ability.

[ripplexiaoshan]

abc123 is still active , www.btsabc.org is active too. :)

[wackou]

witness wackou, still active. Running a witness with feeds (also the lesser known ones, such as ALTCAP and BTWTY), as well as a seed node (seed.bitsharesnodes.com:1776).

I also maintain the following page: http://status.bitsharesnodes.com, and keep doing development on the bts_tools (although not as much as I would like due to real-life constraints, but hopefully the situation is going to get better in a few months). Actual development can be followed here: https://github.com/wackou/bts_tools/commits/master

Future work include setting up more public nodes, as well as working on a deploy script to set them up on a new VPS from scratch.

reported in so far

I will amend my voting slate soon, maybe the 3bts are a chance to get some fresh, motivated people in.

24 is pretty short timeframe for response! Hopefully you reached out to them by a more direct message as well?

Looking forward to the replies. Thanks.

far too long, if something happens they need to react quicker than that.
