Well you are incorrect there. Only bosminer+ is closed, the rest is the same. Its like calling Ubuntu closed because it brings nvidia drivers...
Not a valid comparison at all.
It is like
correctly calling nvidia closed because, yes it is closed.
You didn't write linux ...
Your bosminer+ is closed source, you can't see what code is in it, only what code might have been in it before you closed it, and who knows what changes you have made.
For all anyone knows it could be stealing hashes, providing mining information to 3rd parties, passing extra private information to the pool ... etc ... etc ...
Bosminer is still open, and still works with S9s. Can you rust?
Last updated more than a year ago - it's pretty much defunct.
You want everyone to use the + closed source version, not that one.
Last time you modded cgminer to please Bitmain didn't end very well did it?
I'm wondering when the first time was that I modded cgminer to please Bitmain ...
The first, second and third time I modded cgminer to include S1/S2/S3, I modified the driver to improve it, then and still is much better than the Bitmain ones for those machines.
I fixed some rather major issues in their code, the most well known being the fact that until the S7 or S9, BM firmware would discard blocks if they considered them stale, which also caused problems for p2pool losing valid blocks, but they didn't copy the fix from the public cgminer git I did for that in the S1/S2/S3 back to their code until either the S7 or S9 (not sure which one).
Damn shame about that one
Ended very well indeed - best driver for those three are there in the cgminer public opensource git, based on their code, but includes some rather important fixes I coded also with some good performance improvements and options for variable frequency and other settings.
I of course also released the opensource firmware mods (still available) for those three.
Though I'm not sure if anyone else did that before me, was I the first to do that? Not sure
I'm not gonna lie about it like slush does and say I'm first, coz I don't know.
Though we do know (and slush always knew) that slush pool wasn't the first pool.
Funniest thing about listing that is, that it contains more code in it by me than anyone else ... as my sig states.
Also the thing made by Slush linked by the OP, is NOT Braiins OS, but something you can point miners to, it talks to bitcoind so its exactly as OP said: a Stratum server.
Why do you bring the mining client when op was clearly talking about pool server?
You are indeed correct, I saw the word 'Braiins' and assumed it was the miner.
And where is kanominer anyway? Less words, more code. kanopool also missing, of course, talk is cheap.
So since talk is cheap, as you've made it clear with your own, where's your opensource code?
kanominer is here:
https://github.com/kanoi/cgminerwith recent commits and very shortly I'll commit all the opensource code I added for the new CompacF Ferrari which uses an S17 chip
unlike braiins+ closed source S17 code.
The old version of the public code used for kanopool is here:
https://bitbucket.org/ckolivas/ckpoolAll opensource ...
Where's the slush pool code?
I remember slush complaining on the forum, while arguing with me, about changing it to fix the only valid issue in stratum, so he wouldn't ...
They probably should have considered at least fixing that in the 'marketing only' stratumv2
