system accounts & contracts are valid:
EMLG has successfully validated that the system accounts eosio.bpay, eosio.msig, eosio.names, eosio.ram, eosio.ramfee, eosio.saving, eosio.stake, eosio.token, and eosio.vpay have been correctly created. We have also validated that the following contracts have been correctly installed with ricardian contracts where needed: eosio (system), eosio.token, and eosio.msig.
chains of candidate:
Two candidate chains currently exist which have been used as the basis for our thorough testing over the last 48 hours.
testing and decision makking framwork:
in the time of testing, The EMLG will prioritize discovered issues according to the following framework:
A0: Do not do anything else, this is a blocker.
A1: Must be fixed.
A2: Should be fixed, time and resource permitting.
A3: Might get fixed.
A4: Noted for future.
Discovery of A0 and A1 issues will result in additional time being added to patch and test. The amount of time added to the launch process due to discovery of A0 or A1 issues will be at the sole discretion of the EMLG.
top priority of the EOS Mainnet Launch Group is security
EOS announce well-known and highly regarded specialized security firms are joining the EMLG in order to standardize the security practices at a Block Producer Candidate level.
This test-net will continue to exist after launch to provide ongoing security support and will be an asset to the community.
Update on Launch Timeline:
While Team want to be as thorough as possible also do not want to delay the launch unnecessarily. If no immediate A0 or A1 issues are discovered within the next few days (not weeks or months), we will launch the EOS Mainnet as we continue testing. Committing to a firm launch date prior to running these tests would be irresponsible but team will release another statement on the current status of the launch within the next 48 hours.
