### Merge
The merge is still actively in R&D; see an [ethresear.ch](https://ethresear.ch) post describing the proposed basic mechanism [here](https://ethresear.ch/t/the-eth1-eth2-transition/6265) and the section of [ethereum.org](https://ethereum.org) describing the merge at a high level [here](https://ethereum.org/en/eth2/docking/).
The merge is still actively in R&D. The specifications outline a general direction for engineering work,
while the details are in review and may change.
