Releases

• 0.0.110 (https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning/milestone/27)
  • Arik: had issues with bindings on 0.0.110. Believe i fixed everything, waiting on CI atm
  • Java bindings done
• 0.0.111 (https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning/milestone/28)
  • Buncha issues lined up and at least one PR
  • Current list may be a bit aspirational. Stuff that matt’s working on as high prio but whether it gets done in time is a separate question
  • Timeframe: as usual, go for three weeks and see where we’re at

Roadmap Progress

• Developer support
  • Website getting some more content from btc++ conf w/ jeff/arik
  • BDK/LDK integration work posted a github page for this, looking to have a closer integration here
• Payment protocols
  • Bech32 update to rust-bitcoin is making progress (jeff’s pr)
  • Encoding offer stuff is coming to a good state, so jeff’s going to work on any last comments there.
  • Still have to address changes to the spec which are somewhat in flux still, but will keep on moving towards getting this ready for an actual review and not just a draft
  • Merged OMs initially, got a bunch of followup PRs open and even more queued up to open
• Language bindings
  • TS bindings substantially updated. If you’re using TS, use 110.1 and not 110 bc a bunch of stuff was fixed
• Taproot support
  • No major updates
  • Laolu made recent progress towards the spec
• Anchor outputs
  • wpaulino on vacay this week but progress is being made
• LSP
  • John carvalho: Working on finalizing the initial spec for JIT channel reqs for the lsp. I think the guys are gonna polish that into a final PR so we can share that as the first product of the group in the next call
  • Then we’ll start discussing marketplace related api features, so we’ve added a few more people to the group like people from amboss, lightningnetwork+, to try to converge on how we wanna handle this. Maybe LL will join since they wanna join some ideas around pool, and prob we’ll see Lisa from blockstream for liquidity ads stuff.
  • Jeff: last week you posted the repo on the discord

Dependent Projects

• VLS (https://gitlab.com/lightning-signer/validating-lightning-signer)
  • Ken: working a lot on state mgmt since the last meeting
  • Some is channel specific, some global
  • Establishing replay, antirollback and skip forward policies
  • Figuring if it’s possible to have multiple signers, one offline then back online, can it get state that progressed w the other signers and pick up in that situation?
  • Fixed some chain tracker persistence stuff
  • Working on velocity controls. interesting bc necessary but also global state, which makes it more challenging when we have multiple concurrent channel updates
  • Nothing needed from LDK at this time
• Sensei (https://github.com/L2-Technology/sensei)
  • John’s been asking about 1495, chanman persistence api changes, more discussion on discord
• Synonym (https://github.com/synonymdev/ldk-node-js)
  • React native progress
