Monthly Dev. Update #2 | February 2019 Core Development Update
More Devs!
Zac Mitton, whom previously worked at Consensys, has joined us in our tooling and infrastructure initiatives, and Alan Li has joined to contribute to the LLVM EVM backend. We’re thrilled to be growing and have these talented developers aboard!
Protocol
An Ethereum Classic Labs Improvement Proposal has been created proposing Byzantium protocol upgrades. The proposal is open (https://github.com/etclabscore/ECLIPs/pull/2) and everyone can participate!
Tooling
OpenRPC
ETC Labs Core releases the OpenRPC specification. The OpenRPC specification is foundational to the JSON-RPC Schema in our roadmap. OpenRPC is a project in itself that could benefit all blockchains using JSON-RPC.
- Open-RPC Visual Studio Code Extension v1.0 provides auto completion and validation for open-rpc.json documents. Extension source.
- Open-RPC Playground. The Open-RPC Playground provides a web IDE for developers to experiment with Open-RPC documents with real-time doc generation.
- OpenRPC has powerful documentation use cases for developers. Utilizing OpenRPC, we’ve put together initial documentation for MultiGethRPC.

Start Mining!
We’ve started a collection of ethash mining clients that work with most ETC mining pools. Simply edit the start_miner.bat file with your credentials and run the file. We hope to add more mining client setups with different operating systems in the future.

We’re focused on making OpenRPC more accessible, and encourage everyone to participate in the OpenRPC improvement proposal at ECLIP-3.
