I have a theory, perhaps Ken is dead? That would explain a lot. Any thoughts?

Just received this from Ken:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Britcoin is currently under a new phase of development and will be showcasing a complete revamp and mainstream strategy with the coming of the new year.
Best regards,
Ken
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure what to think but I'll be focusing on creating a new UK focused cryptocurrency for my project and not Britcoin but I wish you all the best of luck, I'll keep my eye on the Britcoin project.

Does anyone have the v2.1.0.0 source code or a link to it on Github?
Also, what actually was new in v2.1.0.0?

Looking at Github, that is the original Britcoin, not Britcoin 2.0 or 2.1. So, I found the 2.0 code on Github. But will7am tells me he doesn't have the 2.1 code. I think there will likely be some important network security fixes that need applying to this coin. I'll do it if I get the chance but really I don't have time.

Well, I wanted to fix the vulnerability I mentioned, which I could easily do in terms of the code.
Unfortunately, I can't even compile the coin.
The code in the /tor directory makes reference to an event.h file and event2 folder, which do not seem to exist in the repository.
Has anyone ever compiled this coin from source, besides the original developer?

It's not a security vulnerability by the way, so please don't be afraid to run your wallet software.

Compilation requires libevent libs. It compiles and runs for me under ubuntu 15.04. Afaict, the only difference between britcoin classic and britcoin-tor is that in the latter, the tor aspect has been extended/emphasised and the irc-enabling code suppressed/removed. Otherwise, nothing's changed. Cheers Graham

Otherwise, nothing's changed. Thanks, I've got it now :8] Linux compile is done. Am yet to start Windows compile. Will officially release when Windows compile is done. Mac users will have to make their own way. Mammix2, the dev of Boostcoin, has been helping me so far. Please put something in his tip jar if you're feeling generous! 16N6vHaQ1wSEtDCzkCG1AGFwwoNm8V2b2A Going forwards, I'd like to just be an occasional dev for Britcoin, helping out with important bugfixes or low-hanging fruit. If I'm the only dev, there aren't likely to be any new features. I'm a kind of PR guy for PiggyCoin but may move more towards development in that too. So, it'd be good if there was a team around Britcoin. I can show them what to do for the PR and show them how we make and sell PiggyCoin products. Britcoin's a great brand and some Britcoin-branded products would be fun.
