The Istanbul HF in Core is about to be activated at block 12598600 (~Thursday, 19-Dec-2019 07:00 UTC).

This HF requires updating nodes to Parity v2.6.5 since spec.json format is changed in that version: openethereum/parity-ethereum#11039

The corresponding PR in Parity repository: openethereum/parity-ethereum#11298

@andogro please update our documentation with changed dates. We have more parties to communicate with regarding the HF, e.g. exchanges - Binance, BiBox, HitBTC, wallets (Coinomi)

I've just updated the instruction https://www.poa.network/for-validators/hard-forks/poa-core/upcoming-hf-2019-12-19-or-12598600 and https://forum.poa.network/t/istanbul-activation-on-core/3180, but the forum post is hidden (and validators are not notified yet) until we ensure Sokol upgrade is successful. After Sokol Istanbul activation is done, we will publish the post and create the corresponding PR in Parity repo.
