Small Informal May Update

Active Funding Proposals:

Currently, there are 2 proposals that are in need of funding. Johnny Gonzo has been hard at work on creating an animated introduction to Masari. Wanting the video to be sleek and sexy, Johnny has been creating notable characters like Mari, the badass babe with the looks and smarts to make her a true Masarian. Cost 8000 MSR.

On the other front, BazookaJeff pushed a proposal that calls for funding some Reddit adspace. The aim is to create a banner ad that calls for more Redditors to visit the Masari subreddit. Cost 1000 MSR. 

For more information, or to make a donation, please visit https://funding.getmasari.org/proposals

Block Tree Whitepaper:

Thaer has been writing the Block Tree White paper. As this is a formal document, great care and attention to detail must be given. That being said, Thaer has completed the meat of the paper and is still working on the details. More information will be given as it comes in our various social media channels. Stay tuned.

Other Developments:

The GUI wallet has been in need of improvement as users have been reporting issues. The unofficial stance is to kindly direct the users to the command line wallet or the official web wallet as it operates much like a GUI in that it does not take user information and has a graphical user interface. There has been discussion of a complete overhaul of the GUI wallet in order to simplify the experience for end users. For talented developers and UI designers, this could be an opportunity to earn some MSR, contact the core team for more information!

Yeah, and just ignore the fact that 2 core members have bailed it seems (Lodo and Gnock).

Lodo left voluntarily and it was planned. Gnock is taking care of personal business. "Bailed" is a strong word if these two things are taken into context.

After a short holiday, Gnock will be back in action around June 1st.  He should be picking up where he left off.

Is he back yet then?

BAIL TIME!

From Thaer:

I'd like to address a few reports regarding wallet issues, and to affirm that your MSR holdings are okay. I have taken a look today to see what might be happening, and it looks related to some edge cases regarding uncle rewards being spent where wallets aren't recognizing what is happening and are consequently failing. I haven't yet been able to reproduce this error locally (it's related to the src/wallet/wallet2.cpp:6246:"Daemon response did not include the requested real output" error that some pools and/or exchanges have reported), but will be working on it in order to resolve the problem. While I will still be maintaining the project when I can, I'm also announcing my stepping down from the title of Lead Software Developer on the project in order to better reflect my latent activity within it, but will still be leading the project. Because of time constraints in order to resolve the mentioned wallet issues, I'm actively open to financing a developer's time to resolve this problem, please reach out to me if you think you're up for the task! Best regards, Thaer

"Time to bail!!"

Except that this is an Open Source project and the Github has seen more commits in the last 3 days than in the week prior.

Sometimes all it takes is a great community and some talented Devs. Rock and Roll Masari!

Hey @everyone! The community has been working to organize ourselves since Thaer's stepping down from "Lead Developer" role while remaining on board to support wallet development and Blocktree in the months to come. As such, Masari has re-centered itself with the enthusiastic support of our community members.

Since the start of June our community raised just shy of $1000,- which will be spent on the development of a number of key items on the Masari roadmap.

The community has generously crowd funded $800 to fund my part time work on Masari where I will be dedicating >10 hours/week focusing on getting the GUI and CLI wallets back in shape in the near term. In addition, I will be making a push for an impending website refresh in collaboration with @camthegeek.

Given the success of and response to the community-led fundraise, we will be exploring ways to gather funds in the future to assist the Masari developers/contributors in working on other anticipated items such as a Web Wallet update, Ledger compatibility, the notorious Blocktree implementation, and Simple Private Tokens (SPT) in the long term.

As we continue to make decisions about the future of Masari we have decided to hold a community meeting here on discord at 16:00 UTC this Saturday the 15th. We hope to see you there!

new GUI wallets available
https://github.com/masari-project/masari-wallet-gui/releases/tag/v0.3.1.0

I just updated it and found a bug:
I hit close button, hit "stop daemon": daemon stops, but gui continues to run, its window doesn't close and cannot be closed - just no closing way works. I can only kill gui process.
