Portal Team Work on 4444s

This document is intended to be a rough collection of the work that the Portal team has done to advance EIP-4444 implementations in execution clients. This also documents the work we've done to encourage adoption of Portal network by execution clients. Worth noting that 4444s and Portal adoption are not the same thing and we've worked to keep them separate. We believe that Portal is the best solution, but we also recognize that to be effective facilitators of the 4444s discussion, we can't intrinsicly link Portal and 4444s as the same thing. In this document, we start the timeline in May of 2024. If anyone wants to dig back further in time, I'm happy to go on that journey with them. A bit of "meta" In this section I have made some assumptions about other peoples perspectives. I'm very open to corrections here. My goal isn't to put words in other people's mouths, but rather to put some words down so that we can refine them if needed to get a clear understanding of the situation. Please please please provide me with corrections if I've gotten some of this wrong which I'm sure I have -Piper
