Ethereum core development member timbeiko.eth summarized the 176th ACDE meeting on the X platform. Developers discussed the status of Dencun, the testnet timeline, and how to plan for network upgrades.
According to the meeting discussion, the development team is ready to fork the testnet and plans to conduct a large Goerli shadow fork in the next few weeks. Developers have agreed that if all goes well, a Goerli fork date will be set for early 2024, with plans to activate Dencun on the network in January.
In addition, the meeting also briefly discussed the planning of the Prague/Electra network upgrade. Two potential topics for the next upgrade are Verkle Tries on EL and DAS on CL. These two topics still require "in-depth study".
