I haven't posted status for a few days, since I wanted to get to a well-defined point in our design work first, so here's where we're at now:
Together with Bytemaster, we defined the interface between the generic peer-to-peer (p2p) network layer and the generic blockchain code for DACs (and also Keyhotee). Since then, Bytemaster has been working independently on the generic blockchain code. Eric and I are currently designing the generic p2p network layer . We finished designing the algorithm for syncing to peers, plus broadcast and validation of transactions and blocks during normal operation today, and moved on to designing the peer discovery algorithm, which we'll likely finish in the next day or two. After that, we'll do a final review of the design and move on to implementation. Keyhotee GUI guys are working independently on current outstanding feature requests and bugs listed in github.
