When we set out to build [Spark](https://filspark.com), a protocol for testing whether _payload_ of Filecoin deals can be retrieved back, we designed it based on how [Boost](https://github.com/filecoin-project/boost) worked at that time (mid-2023). Soon after FIL+ allocator compliance started to use Spark retrieval success score (Spark RSR) in mid-2024, we learned that [Venus](https://github.com/filecoin-project/venus) [Droplet](https://github.com/ipfs-force-community/droplet), an alternative miner software, is implemented slightly differently and requires tweaks to support Spark. Things evolved quite a bit since then. We need to overhaul most of the Spark protocol to support Direct Data Onboarding deals. We will need all miner software projects (Boost, Curio, Venus) to accommodate the new requirements imposed by the upcoming Spark v2 release.
