@jjeffryes has optimised a lot in the client that wasn't captured in this tracking list. A big one was pagination of followers/following. Another was the ability to disable fancy graphics in the client. Both led to a significant performance improvement. Kudos to Josh.
The following issues were completed since the testnet release last week: #456, #881, #928, #964. We'll continue working through this list. Another key optimisation that needs to be done on the server side (see OpenBazaar/OpenBazaar-Server#279) is to enable caching of the images in Electron for our API image calls. This should lead to a significant improvement in the performance of the client connecting to remote nodes.
We also found some consensus on the individual ratings data, which was to include a block explorer link to the associated Bitcoin transaction (txid) and make the inclusion of the rater's GUID opt-in.
Based on the importance indicators above, these are the remaining issues must be resolved prior to any mainnet release (i.e. no mainnet release without them):
- #944
Show network error in status bar - #351
Worldwide shipping (and make default selection instead of 'United States') - #501
Free domestic shipping and paid international shipping option (remove minimums) - #966 Auto update listings to include a newly added moderator
- #840 Reputation functions: optional GUID, link to txid on block explorer
- #860 Enable Buyer ratings if they win a dispute
- #1053 Hide order modal after clicking 'save'

Getting much closer to launch. Some key pieces came together on the server side over the weekend, which should clear a path to hopefully knocking over the remaining issues left for mainnet this week and next week.
Updated list of priority mainnet requirements:
- #860
Enable Buyer ratings if they win a dispute - #1133 Stock units for listings
- Last minute addition based on feedback we've received from the community
- We enable users to purchase items by quantity, but we currently don't allow users to indicate how much stock of that item they have
- 🔧 Server
- This is a stretch goal, but one that we'd really like to push for.
Ok... we've accomplished all the 'can't launch without' features for OpenBazaar v1. Stock units for listings is still a stretch goal, but it's looking more like something we'll roll out shortly after the mainnet release.
