Logos Innovation Lab is a design R&D studio working on innovative web3 products. It is part of the Logos ecosystem. This document describes the ways of working and the process for collaboration between Logos and LIL. How we work Logos Innovation Lab expresses new projects through design, technology, branding, user incentives and community development, using a repeatable process in a highly focused work environment. LIL is a team of highly specialised people. They each have a specific and complimentary skillset. Together they communicate a unified vision through technology and design. Code + Design + Story, all communicating the same psychological perspective in usable tech. Approximately every 6 months LIL begins work on a new idea. From that idea they create a plan of action that results in a minimum viable product (MVP) with a limited scope of features and deliverables. Then, the project is handed over to a product team with the goal of bringing it to market.

Localstore rewrite (ongoing) The Bee localstore loses data sometimes, the disk usage grows indefinitely and the current implementation is not able to deduplicate chunks for stamping or store multiple postage stamps per chunk. These problems are currently being addressed with a complete rewrite of the localstore. https://github.com/ethersphere/bee/issues/3171 Libp2p as a dependency The libp2p library is used to implement the lower-level p2p abstractions. This library is created by and maintained by Protocol Labs as an open-source project. New versions are released quite aggressively meaning that they break backwards compatibility in minor/patch versions and also impose external dependency upgrades (for example a Go compiler version upgrade).
