Description

Refer to the parent project issue for high-level discussion and resources.

This milestone targets an MVP for subnet consensus in the Eudico Filecoin client. At this milestone, the Mir implementation will comprise all features that are essential for it to operate as a subnet consensus protocol and will be available for selection as one when deploying Eudico.
