ACD After Hours w/Pari and Marius
Description:
On Ep. 52 of Infinite Jungle, Christine chats with Parithosh Jayanthi, Developer Operations Engineer at the Ethereum Foundation, and Marius Van Der Wijden, Geth Developer at the Ethereum Foundation about ACDC #142. As participants of the ACD calls, Pari and Marius share their view on how they think the latest developer call went and what Ethereum stakeholders can expect next in the planning process for Pectra. Christine asks Pari and Marius for their thoughts on many controversial subjects brought up on ACDC #142 including the urgency of the Verkle transition, the lack of consensus about restricting the scope of Pectra 1 and 2, and the strong influence ACD call moderators seem to have in forcing a decision on the calls.
Guests:
Parithosh Jayanthi, Developer Operations Engineer at the Ethereum Foundation
Marius Van Der Wijden, Geth Developer at the Ethereum Foundation
