@dirkmc IIUC, the new market release is not 100% backward compatible and we may want to avoid that if possible. Do we have plans to fix that? If so, can it be done by next Monday?

dirkmc commented 3 years ago

I will do a test as part of https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/pull/5941 to check if the release is backwards compatible between 1.6.0 and 1.7.0

vanvank commented 3 years ago

can we upgrade using the latest master which is 1.7.0 for April 12th

ProgramAPE commented 3 years ago

The version of rust-fil-proofs will be changed to 1.6.0? Why not the 6.1.0+ series?

BigLep commented 3 years ago

Note that while this was previously listed as Lotus v1.7.0, we have redacted this to v$next until #5948 get addressed, which covers Lotus version naming and how it relates to Network versions.

jennijuju commented 3 years ago

modularized lotus-miner wouldnt get in this release

jennijuju commented 3 years ago

The team has decided on the version convention philosophy and will update in the discussion and have it in lotus readme soon. but as the result of that conversation, this release will be a feature release that has version v1.7.0

@jennijuju : FYI I added checklist steps for going back and updating the release template based on lessons learned. This is in the template as well in https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/pull/6236
