Re: [Chain] Any future plans for commons-chain?

Hi Steve,

very nice to hear there is someone willing to put new energies on Chain! :)

So, the latest step IMHO before to cut the first chain RC, is
CHAIN-76[1] where some work has already been done but far to be
completed.
If you want to give a help here, there's enough space to get involved
- I would be more than pleased to revamp my interest in Chains :)

I hope to read from you soon!
All the best!
-Simo
