Let me just mention that [1] I have been working on a plugin 
that allows experimentation with different types of Bitcoin Core 
node alternatives (including core too), and it also supports BIP 157 
with nakamoto [2].

In the upcoming months, I plan to allocate some time to work 
directly on Nakamoto.

A missing piece at the moment is a unified approach to fee calculation. 
This logic is critical for Lightning nodes, so if we don't have a uniform 
way of estimating fees, it could lead to several issues.

P.S: The fee estimation problem may have already been solved by Neutrino, 
but I'm not aware of it.
