Have they announce the release date yet? If not what day this week will they make the announcement?

I for one, would be happy to contribute some resources (donate some BTS) or spin up a number of AWS instances to help with load testing, and I'm sure many others in the community would also help if someone could develop the instructions or scripts to perform a private testnet load/tps test.

Using AWS, you could effectively have a 10Gb private LAN with the ability to spin up a significant number of servers for a short period of time at reasonable cost using spot pricing.

Here is an atricle on how someone has configured AWS instances to achieve 1 Million TPS For Just $1.68/Hour - http://highscalability.com/blog/2014/8/18/1-aerospike-server-x-1-amazon-ec2-instance-1-million-tps-for.html

If we chime and say we (as the community) would be willing to fund/support/provide resources for this test - it may encourage one us to take it on...

This is cool!  Yes, for those who wish to contribute $$$ instead of time, please do so.  We can fund this (both in $$$ and effort/time) and achieve a massive blast (near 100K TPS hopefully) via multiple nodes in LAN and then over the Internet.  Donors and volunteers, please SAY I.

This.
I'd be glad to help running/funding a public vLAN testnet as a proof of scalability, at the right time.

This is 7 people so far willing to put in some BTS for this 100K tps LAN test.
Anybody else?
any estimation on how much it would cost in the end?

Based on nethyb's post of $1.68/hr that would be (at current rates) 362 BTS for each hour, not including time and labor...
I'm willing to chip in min 2500 BTS

Let's take this momentum and push forward!!
Now's the time to squeeze out any bugs before crunch time. If this initiative will help propel a flawless 2.0 launch I'm all about it!

I can't do much to test but I can pitch in for the donation.

I would like to help support with some donation. Please pm me with bts address and how much you think you'll need.

Toast is out there all alone, to the rescue! On a more serious note, this is to be expected..

Ethereum is very interesting and I like the project but I tend to see the community turning into the next moneros and nxt fanboys.

Well, I do not get why I need to support  someone who is toast(ed) already, especially if he cannot (has not) proven  his brownie's worth!
[/ sarcasm ...just for the one that do get it/me]

Lack of arbitrage is the problem, isn't it. And this 'should' solves it.

I think this is a nice idea being slowly developed!   +5%
LAN test
We will need to co-ordinate the timing here.

How about that, guys?  If you are keen, please SAY IT!

A trully elevating feeling to see 2.0 coming of age.  :)
Load testing at 100K TPS will not be viable with standard network connections.
I see, thanks for the reply. Well I'm sure as we start to test transactions speed, that even at a relatively low number for BitShares, it's still a huge number compared with other projects
Yea. I wonder if it is possible to show that we can achieve 100K TPS in a Local Area Network (LAN) and an average maximum speed at XXX TPS for LIVE network due to a limitation of an witness node Internet speed averaged out.  This can satisfy our claim that bts can achieve 100K TPS if and when the Internet bandwidth reaches LAN speed.

good idea    lan   Low latency ,Pressure test mining limit and find bottlenecks

to prove it, just take your phone and video record a 1min clip or something showing a split screen. CLI on one side and xeroc's new tps gauge (http://stats.bitshares.eu) on the other side, then post it to the YT 2.0 vids (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjbx3qSmDe7QO5WHjpx6w3o_xQD6JLm4R).
Please, do this! You know the positive impact it would have  +5% +5% +5%
Agreed!!
Good idea.  No spare cycles here though, we're pedaling as hard as we can.
Someone want to take a shot at it?

I will donate some BTS to this LAN test.
We need a bts account to donate to please, if you can spin up the AWS instances and video record it as per above............

Any estimation of when we will be able to import our BTS balances to the new chain? Will it be after the countdown begins or only after the 30 days, when the fork happens?
New chain will launch after the 30 day .. so you can only import your balancea then
