The Ethereum Foundation has asked developers and auditors to review whether planned Glamsterdam gas changes could affect projects that rely on assumptions the proposals would change.

The repository names eight assumptions for teams to compare with how their projects use gas. Examples and prompts in the repository support that review.

Several audit firms are involved, alongside audits conducted within the Foundation, it said. The effort will not reach every Ethereum project or every part of each project’s on-chain and off-chain code. Teams that see a possible effect can email the Foundation.

The Foundation announced on Oct. 23 that it would delay Glamsterdam’s Hoodi testnet activation. It has not announced a replacement date.
