David HusebyHi Dave, the popular light-weighted Fabric TPS measuremet tools, Tape, has been reviewed and approved by TWGC last week. Now it is officially managed and re-hosted under Hyperledger-TWGC Github organization at https://github.com/Hyperledger-TWGC/tape
David Huseby
David Liu thank you for the update. I'll include it in this weeks' newsletter.

David Liu have you seen Hyperledger Labs: Umbra? It is an emulation platform that supports running full Fabric network under simulation so that performance and testing can be done in a repeatable fashion for performance optimization and security auditing.
David Liu
I have heard of Umbra proposal years ago and have never noticed its long-step growth before your remind.
From my first glance, I find Umbra is much more ambitious that it aims to cover and support multiple blockchain protocol. It makes itself powerful but less light-weighted. Tape maintainers' have considered making use of mini-fab as test network boostrap tool and think it is still to heavy to use. Instead, they fallback to use fabric-samples as test network basis.
David Huseby Correct me if I am wrong.

Some update here...
Tape https://github.com/Hyperledger-TWGC/tape is a simple traffic generator for Hyperledger Fabric.
Tape's user can use it in an easy way, as we hope keep it simple and stupid, as it will not deploy a fabric network during the time.
Logically, Tape can work with any kind of network provider with above two items.
Back to fabric network provider, test-network/minifab/cello... I contributed and implemented fabric-sample and test network in Tape CI steps, during the time.
It's good to see umbra, I just know it and watched demo in winbar.
I suppose it is possible to use Tape to test a fabric network generated by umbra.
I would like to see any kind of cooperation between umbra and Tape, maybe use Tape as traffic generator, as python sdk is not released and Tape can be started as a docker container.
Call for contribution for Tape.

David Huseby There a new Solang release which might be worth mentioning: https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/solang/releases/tag/v0.1.7
Ry Jones
is the edit I added OK?
