According to Foresight News, Galaxy Vice President of Research Christine Kim summarized the 198th Ethereum Core Developer Executive (ACDE) call, where developers this week discussed EIPs 7782 and 7783 for possible inclusion in Pectra.

EIP 7782 proposes to reduce the slot time from 12 seconds to 8 seconds, and EIP 7783 proposes a new mechanism to increase the block gas fee limit. Developers have not yet decided whether to incorporate these two mechanisms into Pectra or future upgrades.

The deadline for submitting audit proposals for the Pectra system contracts is October 11, and accepted proposals will be confirmed no later than October 22. Developers decided to incorporate the EIP 6110 update into Devnet 4.

The developers agreed to try to launch Pectra Devnet 4 before the core developer consensus (ACDC) call on October 17. In addition, the developers are considering the name of the public Pectra testnet, and community members have proposed suggestions such as MooDeng and Khlong.
