Are you ready to grow the Celo kitchen from 100 to 120 validators? cLabs just put forward a governance proposal to do just that. Type the following command to check it out:
$ celocli governance:view --proposalID=19

Tidying Up the Kitchen
cLabs is investigating the issues observed with the Geth 1.9 upgrade. It appears some validators are having trouble syncing and with their proxy-validator setup. As a result you are not required to upgrade your nodes before February 20 as previously mentioned.
Upgrading to a Better Kitchen
Hotfixes are an important ingredient to network security. Instead of raising the minimum client version (as previously communicated), cLabs cooked up a proposal to fix an Attestations contract bug. The proposal will include the latest version of the Attestation contract with a fix that can be found here.
The hotfix release date is moved by one day from Feb 20 to Feb 21 @ 1600 UTC. The objective is to complete this entire process in less than 24 hours. An email at that date will be sent with details.
Secure Your Kitchen
Last but not least, it’s been reported by the security audit team and others that some validators have exposed the Celo node RPC ports (8545 and 8546 by default) to the public which can be exploited. Read more about this vulnerability and how to secure your kitchens as we wrap up the Great Celo Stake Off.
Happy voting!
