SuperNet: Now and Beyond

It was an interesting month for NXT and SuperNet. How would you describe the relationship between NXT and SuperNet now?

The relationship between NXT and SuperNET is still as it always was, one of community co-operation and communication. Both project platforms have a great deal they can bring to the other and much has been accomplished in the twelve months or so since SuperNET’s inception, with many long-standing members of the NXT community putting themselves forward to help develop and promote the various facets of this ‘Crypto 2.0’ environment.

At the beginning of November things were very intense. Could you tell us the feeling within the CPMT team?

The CPMT addressed the issues arising during November as being no different to those dealt with during any other month. The nature of the situation is discussed, along with a number of possible resolutions. Some problems can be more frustrating than others but SuperNET has a wide-range of resources and talent to call on in order to better gauge the most appropriate route to take.

What ideas were the CPMT team considering during the crisis?

I don’t think any situation we’ve experienced so far would fit the word, ‘crisis’. We are, after all, talking about a multi-layered decentralised organisational structure. The biggest hurdle to overcome is in correctly establishing the facts, the potential consequences and ideal solution, while communicating a sufficiently reasoned position to explain such in order to encourage the needed change to be implemented. A number of proposals were put forward, along with contingency planning in the event of difficulty in reaching a workable solution, with the focus being on seeking to minimise disruption or delays as much as possible.

There is some tension between key developers of both platforms. Does the future hold some kind of reconciliation between the two parties and what would be needed to do so?
