Sia development update for the week of August 26th 1 Nebulous repo was updated. 14 issues were created, 2 were closed. 7 PRs were merged GitLab users MSevey and ChrisSchinnerl had code contributions merged into Sia. Matt created a new API endpoint, /renter/contract/cancel (using the contract ID in a [POST] call), that allows the renter to manually cancel a specific contract. The command sets the values of GoodForRenew and GoodForUpload as false, making Sia find a replacement host: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3164 Many fixes have been applied to the code related to file contract renewals: Matt corrected a divide by zero error: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3200 Chris added a check on unapplied changes on the write-ahead log (WAL) to avoid mismatches on the revision number (what would cause the renewal to fail): gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3193) Matt finished the fix for the duplicated contracts some renters occasionally ended up with after a renewal: gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3195 Release Candidate 3 for Sia v1.3.4 is being tested in the #contributors channel of our Discord server. This adds support for parallel streaming, fixes renter’s financial reports and corrects multiple bugs.
