OK... we need to get approval out of the way... both APPROVED!!!   

I thought stealth pigeon technology wouldn't be out for another couple of years...

Question:

Is it better to give 5, 10 or 20 Nxt to little good things you see regularly (expecting everyone else to do the same),

or;

Will people think that is insulting for their effort (maybe get pee'd off and stop helping?) so I should save up my Nxt till I see something "WOW!" and give a few hundred?

Opinions?

N.B.
I bought all my Nxt after the 28th Dec, first purchase was 0.00009. Bought more since so I am looking at just about break-even so far. Never sold a Nxt so far though and I can feel another purchase coming on! Tho probably on Dgex, grrr... thanks Graviton but you have already had your tips out of me!

Release 0.7.0e - experimental

http://download.nxtcrypto.org/nxt-client-0.7.0e.zip

sha256: aa778bade323d2b3f4cf13c925aa7b541d57f0853a5828385b72254ac92010bc

Change log:

This is the first release using an embedded java database (H2) to store
the blockchain, instead of serialized java object files. Because this is
a major change, this version is to be considered experimental.

The blocks.nxt and transactions.nxt and .bak files are no longer used.
Furthermore, they will not be loaded at startup, when you start with
empty database the very first time it will need to download the full
blockchain from the network.

The database is stored under the nxt_db directory, as of now it will
take around 100 MB when downloaded. If anything goes wrong and you need
to start fresh, it is safe to delete that nxt_db directory, it will be
recreated.

There are no changes in the web.xml file compared to 0.6.1. I will add
parameters to tweak database settings later, if needed.

The database will use 50% of the memory available to java for its cache.
The actual value is printed out at startup.

Currently only blocks and transactions are stored in database tables,
everything else such as accounts, aliases, assets, orders, messages,
is loaded at startup and then kept in memory. The amount of memory
those take is still small, relative to what was needed for all blocks
and transactions.

At startup, the blockchain scan takes a bit longer, this is normal.
If anything else is unusually slow, I will look into profiling and
optimizing it.

There are no new user-visible features compared to 0.6.1, the code is
kept in sync now (including the critical bugfixes). Having both 0.6.1
and 0.7.0e nodes on the network should not result in forks. I will
maintain both the 0.6.x and 0.7.x branches for some time, until all
major database related issues are discovered and fixed. Please report
bugs, including the stack traces.

Strange. Maybe my server and nxtras server is on a fork?

There is no new block coming since 30 minutes..
