Hey Stackers, we’re here with an update on an incredible SIP that’s been working it’s way down the pipe: SIP-033. This SIP brings us the next version of Clarity containing four key new built-in functions all bundled as wait for it…Clarity 4. These are improvements that builders and core developers have been working toward together over the past few months — it’s now time to finalize the Governance aspects so that these new features can hit mainnet as soon as possible. As these changes are consensus breaking, the community will be asked to participate in an open vote as per the usual SIP approval process.
The SIP draft is now ‘finalized,’ though the authors welcome additional commentary and feedback. The Technical CAB has convened and is working to cast their vote by Monday, October 6th. Based on the technical nature of this SIP, they are the only CAB required to cast a vote, but as always, the authors are happy to hear from members of other CABs. In general, the draft has been well circulated among these community leaders already and includes clear support from key builders listed below.
