On the accountability front, we have decided leads for each of the big three goals:.* Scale L1: @TimBeiko & @adietrichs .* Scale L2: @ralexstokes & @fradamt .* Improve UX: @barnabemonnot & @rudolf6_ . We will be supported by @dankrad as a strategic advisor to all tracks.

We are also restructuring some of the teams and adding structure for accountability. This means we also had to make the very hard decision to let some current EFers go. This does not reflect on their abilities, and I hope they continue working in the Ethereum ecosystem.

Protocol is a group of people who bring a wealth of talent to achieve the three EF strategic goals: scale the L1, scale L2s with blobs, and improve UX.

We are at a pivotal moment in Ethereum’s history. The network, and by extension its community, has a grand ambition to deliver the world computer exporting the values of verifiability and sovereignty to the entire world.
Announcing Protocol.

we do have quite a big task in front of us; at the end of the journey is a world computer bringing the benefits of sovereignty to all. check out Tim's proposal to refactor ACD so we can accelerate on this vision.
Reconfiguring AllCoreDevs . To deliver on Ethereum's ambitious L1 roadmap, we should decouple planning and execution. To that end, I'm proposing we reorient ACD to focus on scoping future forks, and elevate our existing testing calls as the main venue for the current ones. 🧵👇.
