drop b19983094 This will be the basis of a merge commit in the rebase of these tests.  One of them reactivates Vladimir; the other fixes the method for testing the presence of Treasure Maps.
drop b800a3fa9 Adding acumen to TOC so that the apidoc builder finds it.
drop 86b24373a Setting checksum_address to staker address, and looking up TransactingPower in the usual (albeit private) way.

drop 090772379 No need to catch this exception anymore; let it raise.
drop 76649704a Clarifying failure message; this makes it easier to understand why this test occasionally fails.
drop 645533421 If the port is too high, try again.  Attempting to deal with #1546.
drop 05d93a5cb Matching node floor is now 7; this will have no impact in production, but makes the tests pass.
drop 1101dd3bd The first node in the fixture might not always be among the matching nodes.
drop d7f7b2444 Exception tuple needs to be unpacked here; TypeError otherwise.
drop c6e004b87 Allow other Characters to be --lonely.
drop 486247f3d All sorts of out-comments to get the lonely thing kickin'.

drop a69705475 Fixing up fixtures to fail fast and delete Ursulas when done.
drop a3a21ff49 The number of known nodes might be a bit variable at this point; we're really concerned that he has only connected to 2.
drop 9f117ebc6 A Character created from blank config will try to connect to seednodes without lonely.
drop 21ed54097 We need to fetch the actual Ursula from the cache to get the bytestring; this will be a sprout nowadays.
drop 046c8e398 Reworked logic to determine good serials for mocks.
drop 2c4c7a0b1 We no longer need to lower the parameter here; this test can pass in time with all 5000.
drop 9a9ba547b No need to verify announced nodes anymore, since we do this lazily now.  Fixes #555.
drop 4b5dbd937 Removing fail-slow logic from seednode resolution.
drop 0a52a8edb Longer time allowance for this test; it will still almost certainly pass in the faster times on CI, but it's a pain to have it fail locally.
drop 392d51f71 This is a more acute test with a nonstandard domain, as it assures that the actual seednode logic is used.
drop cc7e96f67 This entire test (and part of another) is no longer relevant, as Alice and Bob will learn about seednodes form their hardcoded domain list in such a scenario.
drop 6faadb775 Only simulate hardcoded domain nodes for TEMPORARY_DOMAIN, not nonstandard test domains.
drop 547c3c650 Loading seednodes is now one-and-done.  No more retry attempts.  Retry by starting the process over.
drop bace84eb4 Record proper fleet state at seednode time.
drop eebf26e33 This test is no longer relevant; the seednode tests cover this logic equally well.
drop 0b318c286 Clarify each fleet state (because one of them is the result of the seednode loading).
drop ecac5a933 Don't try to remember nodes of an unknown version; we don't want to learn from them anyway.
drop d40e68869 This node might be an unknown version; if so, just move on.
drop fde4d9049 Fixturizing lonely_ursula_maker for cleanup purposes.
drop ea092fd4d Using lonely_ursula_maker in all the right places.
drop d6d9fb4b6 This test needs to look for the checksum_address specifically, since this will be a stranger node or sprout now.

drop 16a7f90e2 Separating lifecycle tests for fixture hygiene.
drop 0dc3f1464 We no longer need to connect to default domains, and removing it saves us an otherwise circular import with...

drop 4e68f532b Felix doesn't use a network domain.
drop 866e0e2e0 Skipping this test until we get the DB (#2099) worked out.
drop 784814c4b Don't ship blockchain_bob with known_nodes; he can use his domain hardcoded nodes.  Also, don't start his learning loop after the fact.  This caused this test to pass even when he was unable to actually find the nodes in join_policy.
drop 6e2687254 Moving stop_character upward to capture other controller cases.
drop 5b6c57932 We only want to record one fleet state per iteration; this loop previously recorded two.
drop 9437009ff Add a measure of maturation time; if this increases dramatically, that will represent a breakage.
drop 16bc34754 Another test that was passing for the wrong reason.  It now works regardless of whether the future Ursula is a hardcoded seednode or a user-specified one.
drop dcbd882a9 Lifecycle logic - shared in federated and blockchain modules.
drop 3d5c9d356 Ensuring that Enrico doesn't have to deal with known_node class.

drop 488357b3c This log message was confusing.
drop bab9c03b6 This race condition no longer exists.
drop 8b3b04f3d Crash more quickly on learning errors in seednode resolution.
drop ac4117485 It makes more sense to force this off into a thread.  We're not eager anyway, so there's no reason to chance blocking the main thread.
drop 041622c40 Allow worker to attempt period commitment as part of it's initialization.
drop 9f6c72a64 Reducing density; this line was crazy.

drop a34196215 Struggling with some ALreadyCalled issues - turning debugging on for the defer module gives some useful insight.
drop eaf7fbca3 Some debugging breadcrumbs for Ursula.
drop 3fa81deb0 Loading seednodes here is enough.
drop a448903bb This makes more sense, because you might block the main thread in a test, and then the Ursula can't process the request.
drop 924435ee3 This might happen to a stranger who isn't a node and doesn't have a rest_url.
drop 5fd14a710 make_federated_ursulas gets called from a few places of varying depths in the stack - accounting for that.
drop 7b0e8110b Tests were hanging.

drop ea22e7ef0 Temporary tweaks and out-comments to get cancellation working on a (logically) sub-optimal way.
drop 663b7de3c Lots of Character stoppages; these continually running loops went unnoticed before.
drop cf196f2c7 Much more leeway in the number of nodes that have the map when we unblock (as this varies widely just on my laptop, depending on what else I'm running in the background.
drop fdb726095 Some more debug-level logs instead of prints.
drop 7bdc86a9c Making mature() a bit safer against reentrancy situations.  Might still need a mutex.
