day 7: observation about processes: how long does it take to come out with a new Gridcoin version?
<html>
<p>Please share your ideas/suggestions about process improvements that will help Gridcoin. Thank you!&nbsp;</p>
<p><br>
August 15: &nbsp;</p>
<ul>
  <li>I posted about security flaws being reported in Gridcoin &nbsp;
    <ul>
      <li>further info at <a href="https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/GRC/issues/34">#34</a> (and as can be seen there: the issues were known much earlier, but now we have it out open in the public)</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ul>
<p><br></p>
<p>August 21: &nbsp;</p>
<ul>
  <li>Gridcoin dev <a href="https://github.com/tomasbrod">@tomasbrod</a> <a href="https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@erkan/who-staked-gridcoin-blocks-999990-to-1000010">applied an exploit</a> at the "public" <a href="https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@erkan/brain-food-while-you-wait-for-gridcoin-s-1-million-block">1million-block</a> event &nbsp;
    <ul>
      <li>see <a href="https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-Research/issues/332#issuecomment-305290530">this</a> and <a href="https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-Research/issues/345">this</a> (345 is already in released code)</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ul>
<p><br></p>
<p>Let's observe now: &nbsp;</p>
<ul>
  <li>How much time will it take to get a (mandatory) Gridcoin version out (that fixes the issues from above)? &nbsp;
    <ul>
      <li>it seems that some fixes are already in the <a href="https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-Research/tree/staging">staging branch</a></li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li>the thing also is: that exchanges need some time in advance to prepare for the mandatory &nbsp;
    <ul>
      <li>and especially Poloniex with its known delays (aka: not replying to support tickets) will be probably a critical factor</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li>let's be good-willing and take as counter August 15</li>
</ul>
<p><br></p>
<p>related: &nbsp;</p>
<ul>
  <li><a href="https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/GRC/issues/27">#27</a>: check the timeline there: took about 1 week to release a version for: &nbsp;
    <ul>
      <li>"<em>new Gridcoin user? your wallet will not run :-(</em>"</li>
      <li>the issue seems to have been to wait on Rob <a href="https://github.com/gridcoin">@gridcoin</a></li>
      <li>What could be done elsewise in future? Give also <a href="https://github.com/denravonska">@denravonska</a> &nbsp;God powers for the repo and needed services (so e.g. he can build + &nbsp;release a Windows version)? Speeden up the autotools or Travis system &nbsp;(see milestones)?</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
