Dear Constellation Community,

September has flown by and we are gearing up for an even busier October. The last week of this month has been filled with exciting announcements, updates, new content, and a MeetUp. Read on for a recap of all that and more!

Hyperledger Announcement
Earlier this week we announced that we are now a member of Hyperledger. Hyperledger, hosted under The Linux Foundation, was created as an open source collaboration with the aim to advance blockchain technologies across a variety of industries, and includes over 270 members to date. With the addition of Constellation, the multi-project, multi-stakeholder effort now includes over 10 business blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. Contributions of code as well as development from the community have enabled the rapid advancement of frameworks, which have been reflected in milestones such as the recent release of Hyperledger Fabric 1.2. Constellation plans to contribute their open source and cross chain approach to usher in real world use cases for consumers and businesses.

“Hyperledger and The Linux Foundation as a whole, share our commitment to the open source community’s role in making distributed ledger technology widely accessible,” said Wyatt Meldman-Floch, Constellation CTO. “Constellation’s intention is to provide a scalable consensus layer specifically tailored for integration with existing applications and frameworks. It is a tremendous honor and opportunity to begin exploring projects with the Hyperledger community in order to contribute to the project.”

For more information, check out the official Hyperledger Announcement on their site and our Constellation Blog Post.
