I am a Waves beta tester. I can tell you that progress is being made and we are close to the release of the main net.
This is the real truth. Perhaps this process took longer time than we expected, but nevertheless the Waves team continues to work hard and actively. That's right.
What makes you think so? I mean facts, preferably technical.
Facts -
https://github.com/wavesplatformNew version of testnet node (0.2.4): Low CPU/Ram usage. Much more stable the blockchain.dat file. The total stability and so on.
Since the launch of testnet there is only a bunch of version number changes and one test config edit. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Let me guess, all the important changes must be on the private branch not visible to outsiders?
