According to Odaily Planet Daily, Christine Kim, vice president of Galaxy Research, summarized the 201st Ethereum core developer executive conference call. EF developer Parithosh Jayanthi introduced three open pull requests for the Pectra Devnet 5 specification, asking the client team to review them as soon as possible.
Core developer Tim Beiko will add EIP 7691 to the Pectra Meta EIP after the meeting. EF researcher Ansgar Dietrichs is preparing to merge EIP 7691 into the Devnet 5 specification. Beiko emphasized that developers need to determine the scope of Pectra before the holiday so that the upgrade can be promoted in January.
Developers agreed to delete pre-merge block data by May 1, 2025. Piper Merriam said this would free up hundreds of GB of disk space on the node. The EIP 7639 plan is a step towards the expiration of historical records in EIP 4444, and needs to be studied as soon as possible to ensure the target date.
