📝 Original message:
We are talkin interoperability among impl not individual node operators
version management of chosen impl.

where Pierre of Acinq says
"So we eat our own dog food and will experience force closes before our
users do.."
hahaha made my day ...

a node operator do tests live in its continuous integration efforts would
be expected and should be able do so with a by impl assured latest stable
release version.

what is suggested for dialog is the different impl maintainers before sign
off a stable release do a extra test live on mainnet with liquidity in
channels towards the other impl versions and by doing so can catch
unforseen glitches that tests of impl in isolation can not catch.

what also suggested was a collection point where one could fetch loglines
from the instances partaking in the interoperability assurance test.
ex. impl (a) try open channel to impl (b) and fails --can then ask central
logline point for the loglines of ( a < -- > b ) at unix.ts(start) - range
- unix.ts(end).

this then would help assert a new release of a impl is interoperable and
can be recommende for install as considered be latest stable release
version.

LN a Network System Class "Finacial" need in preparation for onboarding 1B
by 2026 start to grow up *now*.

thanks
