Aeon's Road Map #73

Open sci-comp opened 4 years ago

sci-comp commented 4 years ago

@stoffu and others have agreed that it might be helpful to create a minimal roadmap for Aeon that's similar to the Monero roadmap hosted here: https://www.getmonero.org/resources/roadmap/

Below is a draft containing only the release versions with their respective dates. What additional information should be included? What are Aeon's future plans?

When complete, this could be hosted on aeon.cash.

Currently, Aeon's only future plans aside from changing the proof of work algorithm to K12 is to continue bringing in upstream merges. One difference from Monero that Aeon will likely make is that RingCT will not be activated.

From IRC: stoffu, "ok, one thing i want to make clear about the future is that i'm opposed to activating ringct unless a perfectly binding (= computationally hiding) and efficient (bulletproof-like) scheme is invented"

Approximated dates for when upstream merges will be applied are unavailable.

Although concrete plans do not exist for the future, I think it's helpful to clearly state Aeon's primary purpose,

From IRC: stoffu, "the ability to print money in complete & perfect secrecy is THE first thing one would be tempted to do"

@iamsmooth, would you will willing to share your thoughts here?
