V12.1 Testnet Launch Thread

https://www.dash.org/forum/threads/august-2016-development-update.10018/

As for current testing process, after d10e we have been busy onboarding some new highly-skilled developers into the core-team, which will be helping us to thoroughly test and refine 12.1 and will continue into 12.2 development. This additional capacity and expertise will accelerate the pace and quality of testing, bug-fixing, and ongoing core development, and allow progress to continue unabated even when my time may be required for events or business-related needs.

Testing is currently progressing for 12.1, and we are presently working on getting superblocks to be created and accepted on the network. This introduces a lot of new code and needs some work before community-wide public testing would be beneficial. The current one is a process of debugging thousands of new lines of code, and making sure most of the work flows are tested and function on a basic level without critical errors. We should expect to shift to public testing of version 12.1 within the next two weeks.

Nope

Agent 'Elastic Agent on i-d126f65a' went offline while building DASHW-DEV-JOB1-544. The results of that build will not be available.

beat me to it - lol

edit for spelling
 
Dedicated tMN updated. Be warned it defaults to a working directory of ~/.dashcore now, so if you just update the code and start the daemon it won't be using your old configuration. :)
 
Dedicated tMN running v0.12.1.0-de7b2b6 is stuck on block 56763. Deleting *.dat except wallet.dat and reindexing didn't help.
 
Should I build the latest git myself, or wait on another official test release? Feeling a bit impatient. In part because I've been working hard to make more time to help out lately. :)
 
I am on latest build, not forking anymore.

Is there some guide for MNs? I would like to try to work with that.

I tried to get involved with testnet, but this put me off of it as well... When I have the time, it's in total disarray and nobody is around. When the ball is rolling, I've got other things I need to do... I guess it's just the nature of the thing, but the scheduling is keeping a lot of would-be contributors out.
