Contributions in progress

Provide links to work you're involved with that is still in progress. This section is optional, and is for your own benefit in keeping track of what you're doing and keeping other contributors up to date with the same.

Since we created a new release branch for v1.2.0 in the main repository all my work for account signing and the new trade protocol will be merged there.
