Hello community. I forgot to post information about testnet2.0 on bitcointalk thread. All activity in our discord channel.
We announce the release of testnet 2. In this version we intend to bring improvements in stability and various functional enhancements. Specifically, we've focused on the redesign of UI and expanding API, with the goal of enabling infrastructure development. Given these priorities and the necessity of concurrent development of side infrastructure, testnet 2 client will only incorporate critical bugfixes (if any such bugs will be discovered).
On this stage our team will also allocate resources to the creation of manuals, simplification of setup process and support for a more comprehensive list of platforms (i.e. clients for Windows and mac OS).
As for the more fundamental changes (those include the integration of VM, option of spending from mempool and others), activation won't happen in testnet 2: instead, they will be commited to testnet 3 branch, which will be developed simultaneously.

As always, to install leer-0.0.3 run pip3 install leer in your linux terminal. You need to have python3, python3-pip, g++, cffi, build-essential installed.
After that download start script
https://github.com/WTRMQDev/leer/blob/master/scripts/start_node.py , adjust config and run it python3 start_node.py. Note, if you migrate from testnet1 you still need to download new version of start script.
To start mining download miner
https://github.com/WTRMQDev/leer/blob/master/scripts/miner.py, adjust HOST and PORT in accordace with config of start_node.py and run it with python3 miner.py
In contrast with testnet1, in testnet2 initial miner reward is 600 $leer, maturity is 60 blocks.
