GL to me and everyone here! Friday lottery time has come again! Actually Saturday already))) And congrats to the recent block finders!
As far as I understand, there's no more such thing as the test pool and everybody is voting for segwit and I can come back to .de node as before, right?
Yes that's right. Both pools are now signalling segwit and there is no test pool, though I left the 13333 port open so that people don't need to change their mining settings if they had changed it.
All the pool code updates have gone smoothly and they're purring nicely. The changes were to decrease overhead in the code even further and make the two pools give each other more information, mainly to be able to submit blocks at both locations faster than ever for more rapid block propagation. People interested can observe all the code changes in the ckpool git. While the solo code is unique compared to what's in the public git, the recent improvements are common to both. All the planned improvements are complete and there are no more pending updates in the near future.
All there is now is to go back to finding blocks.
