I think another voting about the launch plan would be the best idea

Yeah, probably.

Although, to vote on something, you need more than one option. So what are the other options? Throw it out there and see what happens would be one…

nice to see some progress!

hopefully project can release before the end of this year.

I hope we could hear from Lannister , hope he's well. The entire workload is on EK . Not an easy job !

Elastic for the first time to quantify the method of idle computing resources through a distributed collection, which is the computer world of a revolutionary groundbreaking

thanks to EK Nakamoto and all the other wonderful developers ! Revolution is about to happen !

Elastic theory can be combined with the world's computing resources is a real world computer.

I love the development and all the work which is done for the project. For me the first release plan sounds great.
It is much more important to have a good and stable release than releasing early for some guys to cash out.
So for me it´s fine to take as much time as needed.

Whats an extra two or three weeks.  Small price to pay for a mature release which is predicated by this testing approach.

Just in case you guys wonder why I am so quiet ... I am working hard ;-)

Right now, we have decided to redo the elastic language and the parser (since the old one was poorly implemented to some extent).
It will have a lot more features, a more close-to-C programming language, it will support floats and hexadecimal representation of integers, it will have all sorts of mathematical functions, it will allow comments and also the unary- and postfix-operators will work fine.

Here is where the magic happens: https://github.com/OrdinaryDude/elastic-grammar
Should not take more than 2 days to finish it.

Ah, and I have moved to ANTLR4, away from the ugly LL2 parser we used before.

If "hackers want to hack on the parser", just to "mvn compile" and "mvn exec:java" to parse the simple program in prog.pl
As always: work in progress..

Why changing a running system? Because it can be done better ;-) The core language is an essential part that will stay there forever, so if it can be made better (which it can), we have to make it better!

Just some off topic dreaming ;-) ElasticPL will not crash, it will not be exploitable, it is memory and cpu bound, and it will not be turing complete. This allows us to do miracles ;-) Maybe someone will eventually fork Ethereum and use ElasticPL as the contract language => no overprovisioning in terms of complexity, no reentrancy issues, no "gas concept", no DAO debacles, just performing as it should  

[mr.coinzy]

Did HMC agree to continue with his contribution in regard to testing and debugging? Any news on that?

Sounds good to me.

Also, we will at some point in time have to throw away the shitty whitepaper that we have and that cannot be made worse ;-) We have so much knowledge collected during the last year:

- Retargeting Mechanisms for our "blockchain in the blockchain POWs"
- Own Programming Language
- A good concept to safely submit bounties (HMC's bounty announcements)
- The deterministic input integers to keep work unstealeable (also HMC's contribution)
- And many many more little things

If we can come up with a cool paper, I will personally try to come up with some funds (which are rather scarce on my end at the moment lol) so a few of us can present it at some top notch conference (and have the one or another Dom Perignon afterwards together)

Maybe the Consensus in May 2017, Big Apple?
Or the Blockchain & Smart Contracts in February, Berlin? (I guess the paper deadline could be somewhat "tough")
Then there is also the Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference, March 2017 in Estonia.
And there is also the The Blockchain Africa Conference, also in March 2017 in South Africa.

Or we just host our own conference

not to pump or anything, but I think Elastic will be a very big news in 2017. Thank you EK for your passion and hard work !

NY would certainly be the biggest exposure.

sounds crazy, but any conferences in China ? Biggest BTC exchanges now in China I believe.

There just was one in Shanghai, China in November 2016. I would love to visit china, ... this is where most of today's innovations come from!
I hope there will be one in your country soon

hope so too. Exchanges like Yunbi add lots of value to the coins they represent. Since Chinese government is determined to devalue Yuan to attract foreign businesses, the wealthy Chinese have been very attracted to BTC and other crypto currency as a mean to preserve their wealth.

welcome man!

if you wanna visit China, just let me  know. i do believe one of well know blockchain startup has great interest to meet you.

cheers.

I hope we could hear from Lannister , hope he's well. The entire workload is on EK . Not an easy job !

I think Lannister would probably not be able to reduce EK's workload by himsef as he's not developer.
He could eventually attract more people with his BTC, but I'm pretty sure he's gone for good, and we won't hear from him anymore.

Maybe implementing trading before project is fully developed would be a good thing and maybe producing markets running on the completed project itself should be considered. Lets see there is margin trading futures market and p2p collateralize'd lending among endless new options. EK after wrapping the minimal viable project up you could quickly implement this oh and online wallet running itself
