meeting tl;dr

Dev sync

as always listen to this one, @blocktrades touched on many subjects on top of the usual dev sync, we discussed the testnet, updating the libraries and the code freeze among other things.

Add a testnet test on hf24's restore_accounts function

If you don't know, when starting a testnet, you get a lot of logs like this:

714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account aellly hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account akiroq hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account angelina6688 hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account balticbadger hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account cheva hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account cn-malaysia hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account cnfund hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored
714438ms database.cpp:2046             restore_accounts     ] The account dailychina hadn't removed balances, balances can't be restored

Due to hf24 when we restored funds to accounts that won their appeal or were wrongfully not airdropped, but those account don't exist on a testnet to it creates a lot of useless logs. We'll add a condition so that those logs only exist on testnet

status on community account mutes

You can read up on the issue: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/hivemind-/issues/145
It was important to get this done before working on other communities types and I'll be working on it in ~2 month so I wanted to know what was the status on it.

Force witnesses to run the RC plugin to avoid abuse

Basically make the RC plugin consensus, lots of talk but conclusion was that it wouldn't be for now but would be considered at a later date.

from @asgarth: Discuss RC delegations

There was quite a bit of back and forth there. In the end we discussed the idea of shipping "rc delegations lite" meaning a version of RC delegations where it's a simple "I delegate rc to you" similar to HP delegations. I need to do some work to figure out if this would cover most of the use cases the rc delegation pools would cover or not and see if it's viable and a better solution scaling and complexity-wise.
