Running poolserverj with very few shares

That's a shame. Guess you mean stales?

Thanks for pointing that out. It has been corrected.

Eclipse has added the option to take an immediate payout, thereby allowing unconfirmed block payments for a small fee (in addition to getting payment for work completed on a block not yet found).

"e-mail notification on idle" parameter is incorrect in this table.
We have e-mail notifications when no getwork requests are received from user's miner for some time.

"Formation date" is 24.02.2011

This resource shouldn't be buried unless it's deprecated due to something new, in which case, let's throw down a link.
A mining pool features table is very useful for choosing pools, and even contemplating key feature sets that matter (if starting your own pool)

Holy thread necro...

There's a sticky at the very top of this forum that provides the useful information for mining pools.  It may not include as much information as the link on this thread, but it is everything a miner needs to make an informed choice.  It's also actually kept up to date.
