Commit timezone consistent with stated geography
Hyperlane's assessment for RD-F-119 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Hyperlane is stated as NYC-based (seed announcement). Devcon 2024 presence (Bangkok) and prior conference participation are consistent with US/international timezone. No tz-anomaly flag found by independent research. Commit-hour distribution was not individually analyzed in this session — yellow assigned conservatively for absence of direct analysis rather than evidence of anomaly. No DPRK-tz flag suspected given full team doxxing.
