Sprint Update

• - Meetup extravaganza
• - Update the Network Layer (libp2p) spec with new understanding of how Peer Routing, Discovery integrates it (still a work in progress, but the code has moved towards the libp2p direction two with better standardise interfaces and expectations)
• - network-layer || libp2p
  • Implement PING proto
  • - Add READMEs, open issues to make it more friendly for others to contribute
  • discovery
    • standardise the interface
    • make mDNS a separate module and conform with the interface + ability for the peer to announce itself and also to verify if it can indeed open a connection https://github.com/diasdavid/node-ipfs-mdns
    • create bootstraplist / railing module - https://github.com/diasdavid/node-ipfs-railing
  • swarm
    • add ability to open just connection (without a protocol stream)
    • standardise the interface (pretty much done)
    • wire tests with timestamps
  • Peer routing
    • [~] Standardize the interface

This past week I got the docker registry code up and running, but while doing that, I hit more api failures than I wanted to shake a stick at, so I spent some time on fixing that.
I implemented a global timeout flag that will allow you to get a timeout'ed context from a commands request.
I fixed the notifications test failure that has been plaguing us for quite some time, i made our CI detection aware of circleCI which reduces even more random test failures.
windows builds now work again, and binaries are available through gobuilder once more.
I added a --create option to object patch that is still in CR.
And I am working on a PR that adds errors through http trailers to fix silent API failures.

very short update from myself:

• started working on cjdns-in-ipfs (codename interplanetary express), read a lot of cjdns code, and getting better with golang. it's generally good to go forward, but i need a bit of direction feedback
• neptune is being rebuilt tonight, includes repo config managed by ansible
• a few more battlemesh preparations
• no progress on peer discovery via cjdns

[krl]

finished ipfs-web-app, modularized the webui using this, still needs to be made a release.
wrote a wrapper to run the node-ipfs-api tests in node and browser (phantomjs)
worked on append-only log with text-search, almost done.

will build and publish a new version of webui and finish the log proof of concept, build it out to a demo.

• I had a pretty unproductive week -- burned tons of time in coordinating logistics for PDX travel, including surprise re-booking places :(, traveling, and meetup things.
• I did find lots of bugs while demoing / hacking with people, which we're in the process fixing.
• Anyway, talks for meetups + coordinating meetups done.
• Lots of CR + issues
• ipfsld draft is over at https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfsld -- this now just needs a cleanup of the dag.Node/Link part, and the marshal/unmarshal, but i think we have a pretty good API now.
• land requests -- apparently i'm physically incapable of landing this.
• fix go-ipfs get problem -- worked with @whyrusleeping on this, looks close to done
• gix go-ipfs CORS problems -- still WIP. hope to have a PR ready next couple of days. (though anyone can pick this up from me)
• hacking on federated wiki: added support for adding images. (need to cleanup + fix CORS problem)
• node-ipfs-api -- figured out the vinyl files stream problem. it's still broken though
• worked with @daviddias on formulating the interfaces for "the network" components / libp2p
