:police_car_light:Notes

  • AIP 264 was approved by all parties involved in governance security, including ourselves. After execution, the proposal was found to contain a collision with AIP 263, which created an unintended grouping of assets in the same e-mode. After attending to the problem and resolving it in collaboration with the relevant providers, we performed a post-mortem along with @bgdLabs and concluded improvements that will strengthen the overall security process of the governance.
    More details on the incident can be found in BGD’s post

  • On AIP 267 we identified a misconfiguration and reported to the relevant entities. The decision was to not cancel the proposal, but instead, resolve it using the steward.
    Official announcement on the subject can be found here
