I won't be able to join the call today, as I'm caught up in Lab Week. Here are the updates I'd like to communicate to the group, from the libp2p side:

• libp2p daemon/binding interface spec. We have approved and merged an initial spec for the libp2p daemon \o/
• Reference Go binding implementation. We have developed a Go binding implementation. It adheres to the above spec, and is in continuous evolution. We'd love your feedback!
• Supporting binding development. When are Eth2.0 teams planning to start work on Python, Nim, Java bindings for the libp2p daemon? Would love to get ballparks so we can line up support.
• DHT support now merged in the daemon \o/ We use the libp2p/ipfs bootstrap peers by default, but you can pass a different set through CLI options.
• Spec review and update. Some of us libp2p folks are huddling up this week to review the specs and bring them up to speed with implementations. Watch pull requests on the libp2p specs repo.
• Mike Goelzer and I will be attending the Eth2.0 meetup on Oct 28th in Prague.
