In other news, the preproduction hard fork governance action has been ratified on-chain by the ICC and SPOs. This means that after a one-epoch ratification period in preproduction, the Chang 2 hard fork will be activated on the chain. This will happen on Nov. 22 at 12:00 a.m. UTC.
Following this intra-era hard fork, the preproduction environment will run node version 10 and operate in full CIP-1694 governance. Preproduction is the most mature network for testing that closely matches a production (mainnet) environment. Following the preproduction environment will come the mainnet.
