Meeting Notes 2022 03 07

Releases

0.0.105 (https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning/milestone/22)
- Swift bindings released, arik doing cleanup on docs side
0.0.106 (https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning/milestone/23)
- Jeff to try to do this release and document the process
- Scid aliases
- Graph sync
- Backlog of review at this point
- for newcomers, our release process in terms of what goes in is a bit loose. Usually 1-2 things high prio, in this case zero-conf and graph sync. Then whatever else makes it, makes it.
  - Release early/often, use release to focus review and keep things moving
Breakage in 0.0.105 for no-std
- How big a deal is this for VLS? Q for devrandom/ken
- If not big deal, default to no emergency release for this
- Ken: defer to devrandom on that one
Scid aliases
- Need inbound aliases for zero-conf support
- But we don’t really do anything besides route hints
- Matt to think on how to rename inbound/outbound_scid_alias to be more clear

Ariard: interested in sending transaction in the onion
Onion messages impl:
- Sketch out various message handling apis. Gonna be back and forth on that api

MC: there’s been the usual flow of people who show up and want to help with lang bindings, then realize what a clusterfuck it is and don’t follow through
Jc: underlying tooling could use a refactor, it’d be fair to say
Anchor outputs support
- No update
VLS
- C-lightning approved an upstream PR, 3 more to go
- Devrandom working on disaster recovery
Sensei
- John cantrell not here

Minor stuff
One compliance thing that’s not technically a spec compliance thing, we landed that fix for 105 and looks like the spec is gonna change s.t. Our impl was spec-incompliant
