This release main additions are:
02-client refactor
This refactor will make the development of light clients easier. The ibc-go implementation will finally align with the spec and light clients will be required to set their own client and consensus states. This will allow more flexibility for light clients to manage their own internal storage and do batch updates. For more infomation, please check the following resources:
