Would any of the current @bisq-network/btcnode-operators be up for taking over the role of Bitcoin Node Maintainer (#66) from @ManfredKarrer?
This means the following:
- Take administrative ownership of the https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-btcnode repository (which currently has no activity, but see below)
- Put together a common
bitcoin.conf
configuration file that all @bisq-network/btcnode-operators stay in sync with, and version control it in the aforementioned repository. This basically means figuring out what everyone is using right now for configuration, and normalizing that into what everyone should be using. - Staying on top of any issues that show up in the bisq-btcnode repository and being on point for any conversations / questions in the
#btcnode
Slack channel. - Doing monthly reports on the Bitcoin Node Maintainer role issue at #66.
I think this is quite low-hanging fruit with basically no extra ongoing work other than the quick report every month, and it would be a real value-add to get the common config file put together.
@cbeams @ManfredKarrer I feel I should take this one. My organizational skills are really not made for any kind of admin role but this one seems pretty manageable.
