Current Project Delivery status is:

🟢 Green - We are on the right path to deliver the Project

- Risk factors that need to be included: - that can potentially change our green status:

The testing we are currently doing on “SnapNet” makes us realize some gaps in the flow. There is a very low chance of this happening, but still, there is some risk.

Expected ship date: 2022-03-01

How do we keep the 🟢 Green status in the next 2 weeks:

We successfully run the Trusted setup ceremony until @Jan 26, 2022 for all planned participants and share the contributions we made with the community
We organize everything so we can get the new params over take all the upload steps - that will bring them to the calibration net and ready for final testing
We keep running the entire V15 checklist and close all the items, as we move with the delivery of the network upgrade

Notice: Statuses above are based on the following definition/rule

@Jan 26, 2022 - End of Trusted setup ceremony for SnapDeals circuits
@Jan 28, 2022 - Test the entire SnapDeals flow with the TSE team /MinerX to make sure, once more, that everything works the way we designed it for Snapdeals
@Jan 27, 2022 - Start uploading new parameters after the trusted setup, in order to prepare the calibration net testing and mainnet launch on @2022/03/01

Current development tasks - In Progress items:

Trusted setup run, all the details here: https://github.com/filecoin-project/phase2-attestations/tree/trusted-setup-2/ts2
Miner Migration for V15, more details here
Testing of the entire SnapDeals flow on SnapNet

Recent wins/accomplishments:

We successfully passed all the trusted setup runs in China mainland, having the added difficulty of the “great firewall” + 4 participants in 4 days. It was a lot of hard work and sleepless nights, but we did without major issues
“SnapNet”, as our new testnet for the V15 upgrade, is shared with the community and available for testing the new flow.
We got some very good feedback from all the trusted setup participants, especially on the way we organized the “params run” process, from logistics, announcement, instructions...
