Meeting Time: Wednesday, February 18, 2026 at 14:00 UTC (60 minutes)
The team reviewed EIP-2780 implementation challenges and discussed potential conflicts with legacy tests, agreeing to review and provide feedback on the associated PR. They explored various options for gas metering and reservoir mechanisms for state creation operations, with the team deciding to implement option one for testing while planning to revisit the approach before the final EIP release. The conversation ended with discussions on gas pricing changes, including a proposal to modify the call data floor cost and the introduction of a new website for gas pricing information, with the team agreeing to continue community outreach efforts.
The team discussed EIP-2780, focusing on its implementation and associated test cases. Guru reported that a draft implementation was ready but noted potential conflicts with legacy tests, particularly those involving EIP-7702 and EIP-7928. He had raised a PR to clarify these interactions, and the team agreed to review and provide feedback. Ben suggested adding log prices from EIP-777 or 778, as current gas prices for ETH transfers are high. Toni raised concerns about the impact on BALS and account access costs, which Guru explained would be reduced. The next steps include clarifying the PR, merging it, and fixing the breaking tests to prepare for a release.
The team discussed gas metering and reservoir mechanisms for state creation operations. Maria presented four options for handling gas forwarding and reservoir usage in calls, with options 1 and 2 allowing full reservoir access and options 3 and 4 limiting reservoir usage based on gas left. The group debated the merits of each approach, with Daniel suggesting limiting reservoir usage to CREATE operations only. Ben raised concerns about gas estimation and potential refund issues. The team agreed to further consider the options and potentially implement a simplified approach for the devnet, with plans to revisit and potentially update the chosen method before the final EIP release.
The team discussed and agreed to implement option one for testing, with Maria planning to comment on Spencer’s PR. Dragan raised an edge case regarding reservoir gas management in child calls, which Maria and Dragan discussed in detail. Spencer provided an update on his work implementing option two and addressing gas limit issues in EELS tests. Toni presented a proposal to change the call data floor cost from 1560 to 6464 gas per byte, explaining the rationale and impact. Butta introduced a new website for gas pricing information and a survey for affected parties. The team agreed to continue community outreach efforts to gather feedback on gas pricing changes.
