Network Team Update
Overview of sprint 82
Extensible Ouroboros Diffusion
We merged the extensible diffusion PR.
This PR will allow us to build mithril diffusion using ouroboros-network, and
more generally, it makes it much easier to develop and deploy one's own
decentralised applications based on ouroboros-network. This is part of
the ouroboros-network-0.20 release, which will be included in cardano-node-10.3.
Ouroboros-Network-0.20
We released ouroboros-network-0.20 to CHaP. All released changes are
listed in [this table][on-0.20]. The most important changes are:
- Extensible diffusion
- Mux: bind threads to a capability:

- New start strategy for mini-protocols
- use network-3.2.7
Removal of NonP2P code base
We merged Removal of NonP2P Network Components PR. This change
