Hey everyone!

Welcome to weekly update 162. Hope you are all doing well and that you are ready for more coverage of the Raiden development progress. Let’s dig in!

​

Development progress

In the Raiden client repository 3 tasks were successfully resolved. The matrix-synapse upgrade introduces some of the presence fixes Element (team behind Matrix) has been working on, UserAddressManager removal removed some dead code from the refactoring while client notifications will be used to pass notifications and warnings to the user. Additional Matrix transport layer optimisations are almost ready for review and we can expect the development team to prioritize those tasks in the upcoming weeks.

The Raiden light client team worked on enabling the light client to work without WebRTC. Furthermore, they also implemented support for multiple pathfinding services and fixed some minor bugs in the dApp (eg. navigation fix). A big feature that is close to being ready for review is support for proportional fees.

Conclusion

As it can be seen from the activity on the Raiden project’s GitHub, the Raiden client is still undergoing refactoring of the Matrix transport layer while the light client team decided to introduce more features.
