I think that effort is in progress (again, much slower that I would like it to be) and it's called libconsensus. Once we have libconsensus Bitcoin Core it's just another implementation (even if it is the reference one) and it's not "the specification of the consensus rules" which is a "privileged" position that brings all sorts of misunderstandings and problems (the block size debate is just one example). _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
