I'm just asking because..

Is anyone working on this at the moment? Is the bounty still open?

Yes sir, bounty still open on Rugatu

http://www.rugatu.com/questions/3691/open-transactions-client-for-grandmas


How can you know if Obsi is still willing to pledge 100 BTC at todays exchange rate?
Or was this just some Rugatu promotion? Grin

This was first posted here on Bitcointalk but we saw the chance to promote this project on Rugatu and take advantage of the influx of new users that find out about Bitcoin through it. We pledged a small amount at first to incentive any developers research it, and hoped more people would pledge in the future for having it completed.

The bounty on Rugatu is still active and all funds are kept in escrow, but we don't know for sure if the bounty is still going here on the forum. Guess Obsi should comment on this again.

I have the technical ability and desire to pursue this project provided the requirements can be defined:

1) I need a digital cash system with wallet and was already building one.
2) I already fully understand the entire design behind OT (having implemented a 'clone' just for fun)
3) I need a digital cash system for my P2P network designs.

So my 'proposed' easy to use system would focus on maintaining a wallet with digital cash tokens and allowing them to be spent.  It would also allow the deposit/withdraw of Bitcoin into such an account. 

I would implement it with Qt and C++ because they provide a better user experience and more native feel without a lot of the hassels of dealing with the JRE.

If I were to pursue this, I would need the following promises from those who are backing this bounty:

1) All competitors must develop "open source" on github so I can tell where they are.  (No surprises winning the bounty after I have done 99%)
2) How will the bounty be divided if there are multiple good contestants?
3) What are the minimum subset of features required to win the bounty?
4) Who will judge the usability and by what objective criteria?

I will have to look into how DevCoins works as I would be working on this in excess of 20 hrs / week.

The other bounty does seem much better organized. Is there anyone currently working on this bounty who would object to pledges here being transferred to ft's "holy grail" bounty?

This is what should properly happen ... I have the feeling that the original pledgers are not around any longer though Sad

I'm actually going to claim this "for Grandmas" bounty myself, on behalf of Monetas.

We have produced a "Grandma Easy" client, we just haven't released it yet (coming soon.)

Screenshots:  http://ft.vm.to/files/screenshots/

--------------------------------------------------------------

I suggest anyone who is interested on working on an OT-related client, look instead at the "Holy Grail" bounty:

*EDIT: Moved to Google Drive (from Dropbox) since many were complaining the videos were cut off at the end.

Intro video -- Monetas iPhone app: http://goo.gl/8Dxak1

This app does a lot more than you see in the video, which is meant to show basic functionality.

I'm recording an "advanced" video tonight and will post a link soon.

P.S. most of the code in this app is being re-used in the Android app as well as the "Holy Grail" project.

You're doing most of the hard work, I would agree with that, just willing if would be reasonable donating part of this to the bounty of Holy Grail development.

Looking forward.

Hmm I just tried it from a different browser and it still appears to work...

If you want (or if anyone else having problems) send me a PM with your email and I'll make a copy just for you.

No one ever claimed this Grandma bounty (other than myself.)

I originally put in 80 BTC towards this grandma bounty (back when they were like $2 per coin) but I've since paid those to the Indian developer who worked on the original Java test GUI.

As for the other 105 BTC on the grandma bounty, you will have to ask those original contributors to put that towards the Holy Grail, if they so choose. (If they pay it to me for this grandma bounty, I pledge also to put it towards the Holy Grail.)

The Holy Grail bounty is up to 81+ BTC, including some of my own, and I definitely recommend that any new contributions should also go there.

The btc towards the Holy grail bounty only makes sense to me by unifying the efforts into one area instead of multiple efforts into the same result.
