Thanks for raising great points. We have a question about the timing of the deployment.

As mentioned in the proposal, the recommendation is to perform the upgrade shortly after the end of the veto period and I’m definitely excited to see it go live as soon as possible.

According to Adrian’s clarification, the deployment will be coordinated with the security council and if the fact that the Fault Dispute Game isn’t fully audited is deemed a blocker, we can delay the deployment in July? We believe we can vote for the proposal and time the deployment appropriately, relying on the judgement and coordination by the council and OP Labs.
