Exercise 07

Objectives: interaction between pallets

Needs: Exercise 03

Content: We add the first serious consequence for banished accounts: we will prevent them from building new blocks within the Aura protocol.

Modify the configuration for pallet aura by setting pallet_aura::DisabledValidators = Banishment. Confirm the new semantics by banishing some active validator and checking that, indeed, it neither produces new blocks nor receives points in the staking module.

Hint

You may need to read pallet_session::Validators collection.
