Hardfork schedule proposal

[pc]

Removed obsolete https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/issues/189
Added BSIP-0022

Personally, I'm pretty sure that BSIP-0022 will not be part of the next hardfork. AFAIK this is still being discussed and nobody is working on it. I also think that it is questionable if this will receive shareholder approval.

[questionsquestions]

I'd like to bring to your attention BSIP-0022 (https://steemit.com/bitshares/@cm-steem/bsip-0022-draft-introducing-expiring-votes-for-witnesses-committie-members-and-proxies-within-the-bitshares-network-an)

It would be extremely useful to have this functionality in the next hard fork so that active accounts have a better chance of being considered in any votes.

Shortened the links, should be better now

Thanks for the list.
It's sad that my screen is too narrow, had a hard time to read.

Here's a more comprehensive list of hardfork items, together with their current state, estimated work size, and approval status. I'm open to suggestions regarding the size, it's just a rough guesstimate.

I was surprised to find that we have quite a few things in the queue that are already implemented. Apparently some things have been more or less forgotten and need to be updated and reviewed in-depth. We should focus on those, IMO, and possibly add a few of the 'S' items as well.

Edit 2017-08-31: PR #23 has been superceded by #386

i agree with that @pc and so also @xeroc . we neeed to decide what can we move to bsip 18 and leave the rest for a future release.

Thanks Alfredo!

IMO every hardfork requires shareholder approval. Most of the hardfork issues are yet to be implemented. IMO we should include some of the low-hanging fruit into the BSIP-0018 hardfork and focus on finishing up a release.

[xeroc]

I agree with adding some of the minor fixes to the bsip18 HF aswell bit ofc only after thorough testing on the testnet .. each of those issues separately ..

Imho

I identified 4 big groups of issues that require hardfork and added them in the form of milestones:

https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/milestones

We have 27 issues that require hardfork, no dates had been added but the plan is to discuss and add dates to them. i think we should do BSIP018 first but i leave this for shareholders/community consideration. We should maybe try to add more issues to the BSIP018 fork.

Please feel free to change/suggest changes, this is just one form of identify and separate the hardfork issues but may not be the best.
