How would you handle a vulnerability disclosure on the version you are running if the new versions contains updates you don’t like?

i think this is a good wake up call to people that we should have well maintained alternative implementations

people that are willing to do that work should apply to opensats

I completely agree.

The libbitcoinkernel project is also an interesting initiative from Core.

Libbitcoin has been doing some fantastic work over the years. You should invite Eric Voskuil on citadel dispatch

I tried to build it on Arch Linux a couple of years ago and was unable to. My feeling at the time was that it wouldn't run with up to date libraries. I see that Eric is still working on it so hopefully that has changed.
