New Python Packaging Proposal Aims to Solve Phantom Dependency Problem with SBOMs
PEP 770 proposes adding SBOM support to Python packages to improve transparency and catch hidden non-Python dependencies that security tools often miss.

Robust transaction sending service for a wallet configured across multiple chains. Will bump gas and reattempt transactions as needed
TransactionService is a transaction relayer that should work with any chain and ensure that a tx gets submitted.
All in all, this means the TransactionService should be as "dumb" as possible. It should simply relay transactions to chain with gas bump + retries return a success EITHER when it notices an onchain event was emitted OR when the txs revert onchain bc they were already submitted.
It should also natively support multiple providers, rotating through them if it fails to receive success responses.
Services:
Params:
Each transaction method should take in as params:
The fundamental design principle of the txService is that it should only handle chain-submission-related issues and nothing else. This will make it much easier to test.
We need to make sure that the txService is resilient to all sorts of possible chain-related failures:
Bc the txService is fairly generalized, we should be able to easily unit test handling all of the above cases by writing a mock provider. We can pull logs from vector to understand more about what kinds of errors providers will return that we should be accounting for.

We found that @connext/nxtp-txservice demonstrated a healthy version release cadence and project activity because the last version was released less than a year ago. It has 5 open source maintainers collaborating on the project.
