# Project Health | ||
|
||
Sawtooth is going through a transition from Transact being separated and the idea that Sawtooth 2.0 would use https://github.com/Cargill/splinter . The last two monthly calls have looked at merging Transact and some of the libraries Bitwise and Blockchain TP created with the current 1.3.x branch and renaming it "main". That would allow the 1.x branch to continue as several companies are using it exclusively for their clients(including Taekion & BlockchainTP)as well as not be dependent on a non-Hyperledger project - Splinter. The advantage is having a blockchain that can easily using different consensus mechanisms easily for different workload situations. | ||
|
||
New contributors have offered to step in a help rebuild the continuous test mode to make it easier to work with and faster. | ||

# Additional Information | ||
|
||
The project is on a reboot to the 1.x branch to make it more accessible to a wider audience. Several companies have integrated the 1.x version of Sawtooth into their commercial product. Other companies will be contributing code to Hyperledger to improve the Sawtooth functionality. One project - Taekion - will contribute an integrated Hedera Consensus Service into Sawtooth giving Sawtooth a Public consensus on a private chain seamlessly in the Sawtooth project. |
