v1.7.0 Governance actions of every type on preprod, and an epoch summary for delegators

Summary

Submitting governance actions is now in beta on preprod and covers every type. Alongside info actions you can build motions of no confidence, hard fork initiations, new constitutions, committee updates, treasury withdrawals and parameter changes. Withdrawals are checked against the guardrails script before signing, and staking parameter changes show live figures for what the new values would change. You can also draft an action without a connected wallet and sign it later from its review page. The new guide Submitting a governance action explains every step.

Delegators get more out of DRepTalk. A delegation made on the site now becomes a delegator account right away. On request, delegators get an epoch summary of how their DRep voted, sent only in epochs where the DRep cast a vote. DReps get badges and a ready-made share text for their drep.link, and the recognition card on profiles now shows six badges.

The committee participation list shows every member tied at the cutoff, and IPFS anchors load through a dedicated gateway with retries. The Governance Review for epochs 656 to 659 is out too. Smaller fixes cover notification delivery as the platform grows, faster search and mentions through caching, hover cards that stay on screen, and cleaner page titles and descriptions.
