On to 2.0 As of today, Parity’s Polkadot node v1.0.0 is released. We are symbolically entering a new era of development for the network. How 2.0 is built is just as important as what 2.0 consists of. This is a vast human effort which needs processes that scale with an ever-increasing technological surface area. The 1.0 era of core development was defined by delivering the 2016 whitepaper’s initial vision, mostly by the efforts of engineers from a single organization. The 2.0 era will be defined by a decentralized collective of developers designing and building in the open. This marks a transition from a few agents building software to many agents - sometimes competing, sometimes collaborating, but all working to move things forward. From now on, Parity will not maintain codebases for Polkadot or Kusama runtimes - neither relay chains or system chains. The contents of those codebases have been moved to a Fellowship repository. And as always, OpenGov has the final say on which code upgrades are actually accepted by the networks. github.com/paritytech/polkad…
