Thank you everyone, it's not without bumps in the road, but persevere we will.
moneromooo coding, october - december
moneromooo posted this 5 years ago
We're a month from the end of the three month schedule again, and I'm up for three more months of monero coding.
My reports for the current period can be found at https://forum.getmonero.org/6/ideas/90280/more-mooo-monero-coding-july-september
I expect I'll probably be working on things like pruning, RPC payment, blackball improvements, and whatever protocol improvements sarang/surae come up with.
With the Monero exchange rate at ~ $115 $105 $120 $114 $117 $108 $112 $107 $110 $119, and a target rate of $30 + 0.2 monero an hour, three months end up giving a donations target of 240 253 234 241 237 248 243 250 246 235 monero.
Thank you again for your donations to help me make Monero ever better :)
First milestone done:
- faster cold signing export/import
- some more bulletproofs speedups
- misc build fixes
- non desctructive rescan_bc
- big endian fixes
- fix change_wallet_password RPC
- misc fixes from coverity reports
- secure input echo fixes
- signed_transfer now optionally returns tx keys
- new unit test for notifier
- fix missing records in get_transfer RPC
- DNS test fix
- fixes for the gamma fake output selection
- fix running two daemons on the same database
- misc verification and other speedups
Second month highlights:
- mark-spent-outputs now finds more known spent outputs
- plenty of speedups
- fix fast sync when a tx is already in the pool
- fix optimized tx bulletproofs for ledger
- more work on pruning (plus pruning known spent amount data)
- misc fixes for bigendian (doesn't sync yet)
- more unit tests
- out of sync difficulty investigation
- p2p tx message padding
- save ring members after selection (privacy gain)
- new non destructive blockchain rescan
- code review
- many smaller fixes and improvements
Another month, here's the highlight of what I've done:
- wallet tracking of owned outputs usage
- fix race between several mining threads and block addition
- fix for using the wallet on a NFS filesystem
- better performance timers
- less copies in network code
- disable long payment ids unless a wallet option is used
- include a short payment id on txes where none is otherwise used
- remove the ability to transfer to a standard address plus detached short payment id
- monero-blockchain-ancestry caching improvements, and make it handle single outputs
- prevent the wallet from displaying text from the daemon
- more work on pruning (ready to merge now)
- more work on multiuser transactions
- many speedups
- misc minor fixes and improvements
- misc code review
