May the Fourth be with you! It’s Friday again and as always our team is making strong strides forward.

If you haven’t yet, be sure to join our Reddit community and come discuss this week’s update.

Clove Development Updates

Continued creating more UI mockups

Began mockup implementations

Automated tests for Clove API orchestration

Basic package layout for generating Chrome plugin

Cilantro Development Updates

Early development on open governance mechanics

Preliminary development of an overlay network for dynamic discovery, using techniques based off Kademlia

Mathematical techniques to allow us to scale POW complexity as a linear function. This allows us to increase POW computational time by a fixed amount, as opposed to increasing POW by some ever increasing (exponential) amount.

Integrate new ‘rolling groups’ behavior to augment any nodes in a PUB/SUB topology to only publish to some rotating deterministic subset of its subscribersr

Extensive testing on messagebase classes and development of an asynchronous integration testing suite

Seneca Development Updates

Major work on data storage refactoring completed.

Work on voting system mechanics

What’s Next?

Next week we will work on more on voting systems, Smart Contract process isolation, and doing some of the legwork for integrating Seneca into Cilantro.

In Clove we will be working on a private key manager for our signing plugin, and creating views for an initial transaction in Clove UI. For Cilantro we will continue development on open governance mechanics. We will develop, integrate, and test our overlay network for dynamic discovery. We will implement a handshaking protocol to force two connecting nodes to prove each ‘owns’ their own verifying key before establishing a connection.
