ChainThink report, November 10: Ethlabs recommends postponing the determination of Hoodi testnet fork date or any modification to the Glamsterdam upgrade specification until external audit results are published and their implications are clearly understood.

The final decision will be made by the Ethereum Core Developers (ACD) meeting. Two external audits commissioned by the Ethereum Foundation—conducted by ChainSecurity and Dedaub—are expected to be published before November 16;

An open Q&A session will be held during the ACD test meeting. The ACD Execution Layer meeting scheduled for November 19 is expected to discuss audit findings and may decide whether to adjust the upgrade specification.

The Glamsterdam proposal aims to increase Ethereum's per-block Gas limit from 60 million to 200 million.

Ethlabs notes that EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 involve adjustments to Gas cost and billing mechanisms, which could impact deployed smart contracts and associated tooling;

For example, after an internal call revert, the value returned by `gasleft()` may increase, potentially affecting a contract’s judgment on whether a call failed due to Gas exhaustion.
