Thanks for the response.
Interested in learning how long from a dev perspective it would take. Days - weeks estimate, type of developer required, etc.
Trying to gauge exactly how difficult it would be technically to implement.
Is there someone on the team equipped to look into this issue?
Gotcha. Labs has quite a capable engineering team, so although it’s probably not trivial, I think it’s a relatively minor feature compared to the huge undertaking that is based apps and everything needed to get there.
But again, I’m not sure you’re going to get a precise answer, simply because it seems that the preliminary research needed to estimate the task hasn’t been done yet. Software development unfortunately tends to be like that… estimating is usually hard in general.
With that said, a few days to a few weeks for that specific feature seem like reasonable bounds for a few devs… I’m obviously guessing though (as a dev in a different field). Someone from Labs feel free to correct me if I’m off with any of this.
Also is there a question behind that question? Sorry for prying… just trying to get to the bottom of what you’re investigating. Feel free to reach out on Discord if that’s easier.
Who from labs do you think would be able to best estimate?
I am trying to get an estimate of exactly how long it would take to implement these changes from a dev perspective and who on the team is best equipped to do the prelimanary research
Sorry, but I don’t understand. It’s a relatively small task, and it will get done… Why do you need such a precise estimate?
Alon (the CEO of SSV Labs) gave you a response:
Depends on how we implement it, I can think of a few ways but this needs further research.
And I gave you a developer’s perspective (albeit with limited knowledge):

Labs is very busy with trying to launch SSV 2.0, and they probably aren’t going to shift their backlog of work and spend hours doing the research necessary to give you a better estimate.
