Milestone
Currently, participants need to join within a few seconds of each other, otherwise their contribution is dropped out (by the server in federated and by other peers in decentralized).

minReadyPeer
peers joined a task, the collaborative training starts and sometimes starts so quickly that there isn't enough time for other peers to join and contribute before the first round is already finished. For example ifminReadyPeer = 3
, as soon as 3 peers joined the network, they start aggregating their contributions. Even if a 4th peer joins right after the 3rd, its contribution may be dropped because the first 3 peers already passed to a new round. This should be fixed by the previous checkbox, enabling outdated peers to catch up to the latest round but the first round may still finish before every peer that wanted to join could contribute.The solution implemented is described in Allow decentralized users to join late and catch up #775
