Steve Funk, Head of SupportDevelopment update for the week of December 16th: 1 Nebulous repo was updated. 9 issues were created, 5 were closed. 10 MRs were merged. GitLab users ChrisSchinnerl, MSevey, lukechampine and DavidVorick had code contributions merged into Sia. Chris made progress on recovering files from backups (and in the future, the seed): gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3362. Matt created the BubbleHealth method, a system that quantifies and displays the health of whole directories uploaded to Sia: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3360. Luke added ChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption to the host-renter communications. Now after the initial “handshake” that shares the authentication keys between both, all their messages will be secured: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3371. David improved the accuracy of the client syncing progress indicator and expanded the /consensus API endpoint: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3383 Happy Holidays from the Sia team!

Steve Funk, Head of SupportDev Update for week of December 9th, 2018 19 Merge Requests were merged into the Sia repository this week! The big development news this week was the announcement of a new API documentation website. sia.tech/docs will hold all the API documentation in a beautiful, interactive format. More info here gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3363 With version 1.4.0+ Sia will have support much better file organization with Sia being aware of directories and the files in each directory. This will help Sia scale to large numbers of files and directories while still offering a performant API. Core dev Matt just completed one of the API endpoints required for this upcoming improvement. More info here gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3361 Another big feature slated for 1.4.0 is the ability to download partial files. This feature was started last week by Chris. This feature enables a user to download just a portion of a file, saving bandwidth and fees when only part of a file is needed. More info here gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3349

GitLab user starius, ChrisSchinnerl, eddiewang, MSevey and lukechampine had code contributions merged into Sia.

Now the wallet reflects the resolution of a file contract, and its payout, at the correct block height: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3307 Chris finished the snapshot method of the new SiaFiles. This allows for faster management of all the features for renters in 1.4: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3336 Chris also completed the bandwidth limiter for the gateway module that was mentioned in last week’s update. David announced the roadmap of features for the upcoming 1.4.0 version, codenamed “Draco”, including: 1.4.0 - the ability of renters to fully recover their data from backups they hold of the Sia metadata 1.4.1 - partial downloads 1.4.2 - on-chain backups and data recovery from the seed

GitLab user ChrisSchinnerl had code contributions merged into Sia. Users starius, geo-gs, pachisi456, MSevey, lukechampine and DavidVorick also had work-in-progress contributions.

Despite the abbreviated week, there was still significant progress made by the core team and community contributors. Community contributor pachisi456 proposed an ambitious feature that creates different profiles on the hosts database, allowing the renter to select hosts according to their storage needs gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3334 ChrisSchinnerl is working on improvements to the upload speeds of renters with multiple TB of data being stored. gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3337/diffs Chris and Matt are working on improvements to the management of the new Sia files, that will represent the cornerstone of the upcoming 1.4.0 update: better management of these files between the hard drive and RAM memory, what will reduce the impact on the memory of the system, and the ability of snapshotting these files.
