[lucassaldanha]

Anything missing on https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3918 ?

[lucassaldanha]

And this one https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3818 :)

[dapplion]

I want to surface that engine_getBlobsV1 spec PR has been merged

• https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/559

I won't be able to attend but would like to know the impl status of other clients and remind everyone of its importance in light of recent solo stakers orphaned proposal concerns.

[potuz]

I would continue discussion regarding the engine API and how the CL needs to pass/receive requests as a sidecar.

[hwwhww]

Want to check if we can merge these PRs for the next Pectra devnet release:

• https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/591
• https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3950

These are the current release targets: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3954

[chfast]

Do BLS precompiles gas costs belong here?

[ralexstokes]

Anything missing on ethereum/consensus-specs#3918 ?

I think we are ready to merge! will sync on call :)

3818 needs to be updated following changes in 3918

[ralexstokes]

Do BLS precompiles gas costs belong here?

if we have time we can touch on these, but it seems more appropriate for ACDE

Better for me too. But I will publish something about it soon.
