Can we get ethereum/EIPs#2514 to the agenda?

[shamatar]

Following the hot discussion on EIP1962 here are some updates

• Full set of docs is posted covering and re-covering motivation, ABI, gas schedule. There are both rationales and explanations, as well as the specs and explicit formulas
• Set of the most interesting curves is identified for gradual rollout
• I've tried to contact people in the field, hope to get wider participation. Couldn't reach Izaak from Coda, other parties has expressed an interest to participate in a call

[gcolvin]

I and some others would like some more discussion of EIP-2315

[gluk64]

@timbeiko the date looks incorrect: "Friday 7 February 2020", will you fix please?

[timbeiko]

@sorpaas @gcolvin @shamatar added to the agenda. @gluk64 thanks for the catch!

[BelfordZ]

@timbeiko happy to discuss questions regarding https://spec.open-rpc.org/ if you are still interested.

[timbeiko]

@BelfordZ yes, I'll put it sooner in the agenda this time around so that we're sure we have time to get to it.

[poojaranjan]

@timbeiko happy to discuss "Adding a section of 'Motivation' to Meta EIP of upgrade"

[CryptoBlockchainTechnologies]

Can we get ethereum/EIPs#1057 to the agenda?

[adlerjohn]

Can we put the following five EIP proposals on the agenda? Thanks.

1. Transaction postdata (draft at EIP-2242), a new field in transactions that cannot be read by the EVM
2. Execution over transaction postdata with precompiles (which enables multi-threaded data availability processing)
3. New precompiles for Merkleization and Merkle branch verification
4. Calldata gas cost reduction to 1-2 gas per byte
5. Current transaction hash opcode, which would enable further cost reduction for optimistic rollups

[timbeiko]

@adlerjohn are there any EIP links for 2-5 you mentioned? I added 2242 to the agenda. Thanks!

[timbeiko]

@CryptoBlockchainTechnologies do you have an update to provide about the EIP?

[adlerjohn]

@timbeiko nope. Part of this is to determine whether it's even worth my time to write formal EIPs for those proposals.

[timbeiko]

Sounds good, @adlerjohn, I've added it all under one bullet 😄
