@Tommo no merged mining support in stratum this far. only software i know capable of it is eloipool. i know theres a WIP on merged mining but i tried it and it fails completely for me.
Aah ok, I was wondering if that was the case, seems like something that would be more widely publicised if stratum natively supported it. I found a guide for setting up merged mining using poolserverj, but its a complete change of architecture compared to my current pool setup. Not to mention merged mining seems to consist of a Bitcoin/Namecoin combination, both of which have very high difficulty, far too high for TomPool.
yup. hopefully one of us can get the job done but I don't know when since its possible i'll be moving away from stratum to a custom pool server (fork of coinium (WIP that im contributing to and may be able to add Merged Mining to there)) so far the only merge mineable coins are:
namecoin(high diff)
devcoin (high diff)
i0coin (high diff)
ixcoin (high diff)
groupcoin(high diff?)
coiledcoin (killed in 51% attack)
