RE: gtg witness log

Greetings, @gtg,

Please pardon this 'off-topic' comment as coming from a Steemian who cares deeply about the platform and its future success.

I'm here to ask: When do you plan to adopt Steemit condenser version 19.10?

I encourage you, as Witness #1, to please lead the way by updating your witness node to 19.10 at the earliest possible opportunity, so that its much needed and long awaited features might be released as soon as possible for our use and enjoyment.

Thank you kindly in advance for your prompt action in expediting this matter.

Your fellow Steemian,

@creatr

😄😇😄

That's actually on-topic :-)
(please note however, that it's not a condenser upgrade, but steem, that would allow the condenser to use an infinite editing feature).
I was hoping to see a new tag (i.e. v0.19.11 or so) that includes fixes to the original release (to avoid doing same work twice), that's why I'm still running earlier version on my main node.

Short answer: this week I believe.

What fixes are needed?

Thank you, @gtg, for your gracious, helpful, and encouraging response.

"(please note however, that it's not a condenser upgrade, but steem, that would allow the condenser to use an infinite editing feature)."

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but even if steem supplies this capability, mere mortals—such as a content creator like myself—cannot access the change apart from a condenser modification to enable the [Edit] button?

In any case, I can completely understand and appreciate your desire to minimize the work you need to do by skipping to v0.19.11 with fixes... Thank you for the insight.

But the update they are pushing is a steem update. @gtg does not control steemit/condenser.

Also, you can actually edit old posts at the moment with a program like esteem surfer, it just may take 20 - 30 seconds as it has to wait for a witness who is updated to make a block.

Thank you @ajayyy, and right, I understand that...

However, in an indirect way, the witnesses do control when Steemit, Inc. will update the condenser. As I best understand it, the condenser people are waiting for more witnesses to adopt 19.10 before a condenser update.

I am not familiar with esteem surfer, but I will look for it.

Meanwhile, @timcliff has published a provisional condenser that allows editing... So I am very happy at the moment. :D

Yep, they are waiting because, if not enough witnesses update, then editing a post will take 20 - 30 seconds to submit.
