Developers plan to launch Pectra Testnet 3 one week later and are considering updates to EIP-7251 and EIP-2935. The meeting also discussed a proposal to add a new field "ExecutionClientRequests" to beacon blocks, along with solutions for simplifying execution layer client block transitions.
Regarding PeerDAS, developers plan to launch Testnet 2 on August 23 and discussed the possibility of including EIP-7742 in the Pectra upgrade.
In addition, developers agreed to name the next consensus layer upgrade "Fulu," after a star in the constellation Cassiopeia. ProbeLabs also shared an analysis of message propagation in the Ethereum network layer following the Dencun upgrade.
