Thanks for taking the time, everyone. It was great to have so many people on the call. The energy and enthusiasm for the project are encouraging. LFG! ![]()
Let’s run it again in two weeks. That may or may not be the right cadence, but it’s a reasonable place to start.
A quick recap:
- Attendance: 12+ devs, builders, students, pools, industrial miners, and hardware vendors
- Vision: be the Linux kernel project of Bitcoin mining
- open source, developed in the open, not released over the wall
- built by volunteers and industry together
- comprehensive hardware support for all chips, hashboards, and control boards
- serves industrial operators, heat co-producers, and home miners alike
- State: core in place, now adding hardware breadth and fleshing out features
- Current priority: official S19 support, to enable early adoption
- In progress across the community
- LibreBoard control board support (256F open hardware)
- EmberOne00 v6 hashboard support (256F open hardware)
- S19 support: hashboards, stock control boards, and an easy installer
- SV2 client
- BZM2 chip driver
- Bitaxe Bonanza board support (open hardware)
- YAML config files
- Contribution flow
- possible bugs start in discussions, get triaged, and are promoted to issues
- simple fixes go straight to PR
- prospective features start in discussions, then become draft PRs
- PRs stay in draft until the author is ready for review and merge
- PRs should contain one or more small, atomic commits so the history reads as a sequence of clear, reviewable steps
- Communication
- GitHub preferred—in the closest issue, PR, or discussion context
- Forum for user-oriented (vs. dev-oriented) discussion and support
- Telegram for real-time, ephemeral chat
