PROFILE
Michal Kit
Michal Kit contributed to the corda/corda repository by developing features focused on backward compatibility and extensibility in distributed ledger protocols. He implemented forward-compatibility tests for the NotarisationPayload, ensuring that deserialization works seamlessly with or without the new transactionSignatures field, which reduces rollout risk for protocol changes. In addition, Michal extended the NotaryInfo data class in Kotlin to include a protocol field, using careful API design and constructor management to maintain compatibility with existing deployments. His work demonstrated strong skills in Java, Kotlin, serialization, and unit testing, providing a robust foundation for future protocol-aware features and analytics.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 — corda/corda: Delivered NotaryInfo protocol field extension in NetworkParameters.kt, adding a new backward-compatible 'protocol' field with constructor and copy method. This groundwork enables protocol-aware notary metadata and future features (routing, auditing) without breaking existing deployments. No major bugs fixed this month. Business value: prepares the platform for protocol-level notary distinctions, reducing migration risk and enabling richer analytics. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Kotlin data classes, API compatibility strategies, and careful change management.

Sep 1, 2025Concise monthly summary for 2025-09 focusing on corda/corda. Delivered forward-compatibility tests for NotarisationPayload regarding the transactionSignatures field, verifying deserialization with/without the new field to ensure backward compatibility across releases. This reduces rollout risk for changes to the notarisation payload.
