  • Barnabas

    ye

  • Barnabas

    keep focil rolling?

  • Iván | ethrex

    Replying to "keep focil rolling?" Only ethrex + lodestar, didn’t try lighthouse yet since they announced they’re up-to-date

  • Iván | ethrex

    Replying to "keep focil rolling?" Stopped trying with besu since we’re both based on bal-devent-6 (in which we disagree)

    @Mehdi Aouadi can you let besu know that they would need to rebase on top of glam-dev-4 their focil branch?

  • Iván | ethrex

    We are passing all tests in bal-devnet-7 and Besu is failing just 2
