Once the\n\u003e \u003e soft fork starts to roll out or activates, what do miners need to be\n\u003e aware\n\u003e \u003e of? SPV wallet authors?\n\u003e\n\u003e Do you have such a document for your BIP101? That would save me a lot of\n\u003e time, and the need for that kind of document is significantly higher\n\u003e with BIP101 anyway.\n\u003e\n\nHmmm?  When I asked YOU for that kind of security analysis document, you\nsaid you'd see if any of your clients would be willing to let you publish\none you'd done in the past. Then I never heard back from you.\n\nSo, no, I don't have one for BIP 101, but unless you were lying and just\ntrying to add Yet Another Hoop for BIP 101 to jump through, you should\nalready have something to start from.\n\nRE: mempool only: yes, pull-req 5000 satisfies (and that's what I was\nthinking of). There should be a nice, readable blog post explaining to\nother full node implementors and wallet implementors why that was done for\nCore and what they should do to follow 'best practices to be soft-fork\nready.'\n\n-- \n--\nGavin Andresen\n-------------- next part --------------\nAn HTML attachment was scrubbed...\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150928/7a494177/attachment-0001.html\u003e"}
