I like the current GUI just fine. It is simple to use and works fine for me.  However when I look at the links above I found some pull requests for a new GUI from back in January. Why were these closed?

https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed

My guess is that it was decided that conversion to the new database format should be completed first. Is that correct?

https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/pull/40
https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/pull/39
https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/pull/38

Can one of these people respond?

https://github.com/gjhiggins
https://github.com/cryptozoidberg

I am not one of the people referenced above for those pull requests but I think your guess is correct.  My guess is that additional GUI updates will happen after the database work by cryptozoidberg and clintar is done.

I was wondering the same thing. Those GUI discussion happened long ago but seemed to be forgotten about earlier this year.  If you are right then it sounds similar to the Monero situation. They don't want to spend time making a new GUI until their db release is complete either.

The current lacks merchant tools (APIs, invoicing, etc). Make the new wallets useful as possible to those who will accept Boolberry payments.

I would rather see some marketing efforts to encourage businesses to accept Boolberry than this:

Both users and merchants are needed. It is hard to interest one group with the other.

Popboolr is something that should really help once it gets out of beta.

This was an old graphic. It seems like SuperNET integration has been waiting on the Boolberry database conversion work being complete. Hopefully we are getting close to completion now.

Good suggestion. What have you done to encourage businesses to accept Boolberry? It seems like many people come up with ideas but hope others will implement them. Nobody is being paid to market Boolberry. It is up to the community to do so.

Helpful post regarding the BBR alias feature from the announcement thread:

"Wallet address aliasing: any wallet can be linked with symbolic name via special type extra record in coinbase. Block chain will control registered names uniqueness."

how to create and use such name/alias ?

It's easy if you're solo mining. 

http://boolberry.com/howto.html#aliases

How to use aliases

You can map your long address string with short nickname, and it can be used in transfer commands.
Mapping is possible when you find a block and each block can map only one alias. The valid alias characters are lower case English letters, numbers, hyphen and periodin order to protect aliases from "phishing" and cheats. .
#define VALID_ALIAS_CHARS     "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-."
If you do mining and want to set up your miner to add alias to blockchain, pass this command into daemon console:

make_alias luckycat 1GY1d9z41rBPUghdQaW2h62AV6z5FJ7TsCAbYQhbW6k2ZFLEfYhVV45DnqKRGPq7RLEpTsJVjpQKYWf tK7LeMfjiUq4oDYa
The alias will not be committed into blockchain if the alias is already in use.

This seems like a nice feature for merchants who would like to have easy to remember addresses for accepting payments.

I actually have several names in my mind I might try to register. The beautiful thing about a system like this is that nobody has an advantage over anyone else. Even with a very small hashrate anyone can eventually solo mine a block and choose an alias.

First come first served!

I just realized this thread was moved to announcements from the altcoin section?

Why? Who requested the change?

Its purpose is very similar to these threads which remain in the correct section:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=753252.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1197508.0

Boolberry should be treated the same as other CryptoNote coins!

If a moderator sees this, please move our thread back here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

Thank you

So if you as the thread starter did not request the move only mod could do it?

Really mod, what would a speculation thread do on the announcement board, announce trading and price speculation?

I wish the moderator in question would say what their reasoning was. This makes no sense to me.

I found this graphic in another thread and thought it looked cool:

Is anyone following the SuperNET drama lately? I guess there is some disagreement between NXT and the direction Jl777 wants to take SuperNET. There is a lot of uncertainty right now.

It was.  It doesn't make sense to have moved it here in the announcement section.  But it's not my forum so it doesn't have to make sense to me for them to move it.

No, sounds like a waste of time.

What caused the BBR spike today? With the lower hash rate and block explorer issues recently, the opposite might have been more expected. How do you explain this?

Boolberry innovations have been under appreciated for a long time but the timing of this does seem strange. I cannot explain the sudden spike in volume.

If it was caused by a newcomer, hopefully they will say hello and tell us what attracted them to Boolberry. As a community we should speak more about Boolberry strengths and weaknesses and how we can help build a strong future for the currency.

As I just posted in the announcement thread both of the block explorers below are working again.

I speculate that the Boolberry price rebound may be related to some people feeling relief about the block explorer issue being resolved but that is just a guess.
