  • A major update is that it includes 3DNS domains and TXT records
  • Strong indexing support for 3DNS domains
  • Shipped enhancements to the way that configurations of ENS Indexer are handled.
  • ENS Node has now been merged into the ENS test environment
  • Work is being done for the next release of DNS Node, version 0.28.
  • Reverse resolution is being worked on.
  • Work is being done on an ENS Rainbow v2 data format.
  • ENS Rainbow is being made extensible to grow the set of rainbow records across time.
  • Terraform scripts have been shipped to help people run their own ENS node instances
  • A solution is being developed to index resolver record values, which have been very limited in the past
    • This is a foundation for accelerating primary name lookups
    • The goal is to radically accelerate lookups through index data, including cross-chain primary name lookups
    • With a single request, users could get all primary names of an address across all chains
  • Actively recruiting, with job descriptions to be published soon.
  • A referral program might be coming to ENSv1 soon.
  • Feedback was given to provide a cost estimate for running an ENS node
  • Suggestion to create a website for a healing competition
  • The ecosystem could put up a bounty for whoever heals the most

  • Brandly will possibly join the next MetaGov call to talk about his proposals for the DAO to do an equity investment in OpenBox Inc.
  • ETH Prague highlight: Tim Berners Lee (creator of World Wide Web), mentioned he has an ENS name and would make domains more decentralized if he could go back in time.
