Today I am happy to announce that the leaf-witness is now online and ten days early to boot! The backup witness will have to come online later on, when will depend on finances. I did also have a small snafoo in terms of creation of the leaf.witness account purely related to me being a dipstick, anyways short story the account will instead be leaf-witness. It is now online and processing blocks though we have yet to mint our first block, our pricefeed is running as well. Big shout out to someguy123 and his team for all the tools that make this witness possible. 
What comes next?
-Continuing development of the leaf framework which will make it possible to easily launch text based games on hive.
-Backup witness for leaf-witness which for the time being will simply be put offline if we detect failed blocks.
-Community action such as onboarding I will be making use of already existing onboarding mechanisms, no need to reinvent the wheel.
-This list is non exhaustive please watch this account for further announcements and development.
