Hey everybody,
Last call was more of a free flow conversation between IC enthusiasts and it was quite fun! For the next one we will have Jason present and discuss a new change that will be added to the SDK called “system wide dfx”
I hope to see you all there on the next one July 7th 19:00 CET. Use the following link to view the up to date calendar.
If there are any topics you would like to bring in yourself please post them here or in the DEV discord

Hey devs 
,
Tomorrow Thursday at 6 pm CET (Europe switched to winter time last weekend) is the next Developer Tooling WG. There’s not much on the agenda, so if you want to present or discuss something there’s still time to reach out! In any case, it’s a chance to meet and ask your questions to the SDK team.
@dfx-json will give an update on the SDK roadmap and the next generation of Motoko development
@Gabriel Wants to talk about issues with actor factories and his workarounds using ic-repl and didc
Note also that @lwshang posted an RFC for a standard to structure canister metadata, which we discussed in the last meeting: [RFC] Canister Metadata Standard.

Could we put canister backups / downloading state on the agenda? I think this was mentioned as a feature at one point.
Restoring canister state from there would be nice as well

Agree…this might be the biggest production enhancement feature possible for devs building real world dapp that have user data in them. The current back up methods ar all fragile and require hours of dev time for each project to roll their own.
Regarding or/post upgrades dfx could add a --safe argument to deploy that would download the canister state, run the upgrade locally, and then run it again to make sure the pre upgrade doesn’t fail, then attempt a deploy.
