[FEAT] Change mentions and use of parity-ethereum to openethereum #4018

Open fakenine opened 3 years ago

fakenine commented 3 years ago

Description

Change links and references in the docs to run an Ethereum node from parity to openethereum, and change these references in the code too.

Motivation

Currently, docs about running an Ethereum node states that you can use parity-ethereum, but the project is no longer maintained.

There's also lots of comments and bits mentioning this in the code.

Justification

parity-ethereum is no longer maintained since more than a year and has been moved to openethereum

parity-ethereum can still be subject to bugs and vulnerabilities, so we should encourage users running nodes to use the openethereum project instead of parity.

Additional Information

@PatrickAlphaC Does this still need work?

Hi @jakedamon , yes I can see the code still mentions Parity. However let me check with the team as to the best way forward for this, because OpenEthereum has now also been deprecated, so the original solution isn't valid! I'll get back to you

pappas999 commented 2 years ago

Hi @jakedamon , yes this is still a valid issue, but instead of OE, the docs & code comments etc should be changed to mention geth instead
