Week 9 2026 (Mon Feb 23 - Fri Feb 27, 2026)

Highlights

  • Status integration near the finish line: All three status-go PRs (#7312, #7332, #7201) consolidated into a backup draft PR, rebased on develop and ready to merge once infra executes.
  • New block exchange protocol work progressed with decoupled manifest fetching, multi-download per CID, and manifest versioning groundwork.
  • Anonymous storage approaches drafted: Initial designs completed for both anonymous download and anonymous publishing using the mix protocol.

Status Integration

  • achieved:
    • responding to the review comments final fixes and getting approvals on status-go/pull/7312 and status-go/pull/7332. Waiting for the “infra” team “execute” the merge.
    • local execution of the final merge of status-go/pull/7201
    • then on top of that:
      • added more elegant and consistent separation between torrent and logosstorage builds so that it is easier to selectively include them in the build
      • improved life-cycle management of ArchiveManager,
      • fixing history archive integration tests,
      • better, lighter linting so that libstorage is not required just for the linting target
      • responding to the reviews on the original pre-merge #7201.
      • created a “backup” draft PR status-go/pull/7344, where all three PRs - #7312, #7332, and #7201 - are all combined and rebased on top of the current develop so that the final solution can be evaluated while wating for the “infra” team to merge #7312, #7332.
  • next:
    • waiting for the “infra” team to merge “#7312”, and “#7332”,
    • rebase the original “#7201”: we already have the rebase prepared, so maybe besides responding to some extra review comments, we are ready to merge the final integration.
