This ticket describes what is needed in order to wrapup the BigchainDB
integration with DACS:

About this ticket:

The goal of this ticket is to collect all the tasks that need to be completed in order to finish DACS's integration with BigchainDB.

org#5 Host a test net usable by vetted 3rd parties > @ttmc

This is a whole project currently.
If we can split this up into tasks and replace it with them (only the tasks needed to wrapup dacs though), that'd be better.

[ttmc]

@TimDaub Yes, org#5 is a whole project, but it's also basically done. To run a "test net usable by vetted 3rd parties," one can use the existing AWS deployment scripts.

[trentmc]

It's not just "a test net" it's "ipdb test net". It would be cool if it's as simple as using existing deployment scripts. Is that really all there is?

[diminator]

@vrde @TimDaub @trentmc : added the open refactor issues

[sohkai]

Depending on the design of COALAIP/pycoalaip#18, another ticket might be added to https://github.com/bigchaindb/pycoalaip-bigchaindb.

[sohkai]

@sbellem and I decided that bigchaindb/bigchaindb-driver#30 scope is somewhat too large for this project, and shouldn't be done before bigchaindb/bigchaindb#590 is merged.

A few changes may be necessary to the driver, such as exposing a way to create transactions; a new task may be replacing bigchaindb/bigchaindb-driver#30 in the context of this project.

org#5 Host a test net usable by vetted 3rd parties > @ttmc (maybe split this into tasks if possible)

I marked this as done, as for the scope of DACS there is nothing left to do.

[TimDaub]

memetracker#18 Fix false positives on WOTN with UX

@vrde

It seems to me that this was done and presented to the project's stakeholders. I'll mark it as done in this ticket.

bigchaindb#501: group consensus logic @r-marques

Removed this issue from the scope of this ticket, as with the integration into MongoDB it might become solved/irrelevant.

There are 9 outstanding PRs on https://github.com/COALAIP/specs/pulls

To close this ticket, their completion (which is mainly dependent on me to review them) will not be tracked as part of this ticket's efforts.

Hence, I'll close this ticket 🎉!
