Developers:

I've pushed the new verification API online for Mastercoin-explorer (example). Could you guys let me know once you have also done this so I can add you to my DEx consensus checker?


Edit

Transactions API working

http://mymastercoins.com/jtransactions.aspx?address=1G3P5bws8wRVrVfKWxv8F85pRjs9qXyyA6&currency_id=2


I'll update the transaction api today.   Added some fields and updated the scripts, (I will need to reparse the entire db).

btw requesting a hackathon for TMSC sycn.   (I'm +8 GMT Singapore,Hong Kong Time  Will prepare espresso =)

Hey Bitoy,

Please take a look at pull 41, it's a change to DEx (additional intent byte) and I'm waiting on feedback about whether we'll be implementing backwards compat for existing TMSC DEx transactions - unfortunately I missed that discussion during the last conference as we were switching providers.

We need to get that into play & settled I think before we can attack consensus for DEx.

Thanks Smiley

Hey JR, I'd just need to make a slight correction to the addresses. I've generated a new one just for MSC:

1MMF42zk8f4TqoV1QFeia18bb14rBHXzAU

Thanks JR.

Updated the list. Please check. Thanks!

Sorry to be such a pain, but I should give you my updated BTC address as well: 1JJ6e9iWjGgEnCQRivKvdfNjRTgYVaKtWy

Oops!

Updated. Thanks

150 BTC sent!!: http://blockchain.info/tx/6f1eb48d1cdf9787d6ade82d668bfed2265fb25fca32c5f7acd4509a2ee9e0ba

Enjoy!

Please note that I was supposed to deduct RBB money from these totals, but forgot to do so. This means that people who collected both RBB and this bounty will either have to 1) Return their January RBB money to David or 2) Have the RBB BTC that should have been deducted from this payout deducted from their next milestone payout.

what does "Draft User experience walkthroughs" mean exactly? An example could be helpful.
Is something like https://masterchain.info/downloads/masterchain_tutorial.pdf expected?
or maybe https://masterchain.info/downloads/DEx_test_plan.pdf ?
does this deadline affect the bounty?
what are the criteria?

grazcoin - I believe "Draft User experience walkthroughs" is my task, thou I'm not the one to call it.
It's a method to examine and evaluate functionality and usability with interfaces.

I will have a Skype meeting with Craig to find out what is the scope and exact demands at this point, as I kinda planning the UI of the wallet from scratch.
It may be possible that he wants this for the other wallets as well. I will try to find out and update, or let him know about this post.

Update:

The devs have been talking about this for some time, but I want to announce it publicly here: we're moving to date-driven milestone bounties, which seem to work much better for us. We'll be giving out $50k $100k/month (partially deducted from the currently active bounty) until the distributed exchange is finished, at which time we will give out the remainder of that bounty. Thereafter, we will give away $100k/month.

Consequently, we will be doing another round of evaluation for a $100k giveaway in BTC on 2/28/2014 to close out February. Here are Ron's notes on how date-driven milestone bounties will be allocated:

Quote
50% goes to the primary milestone
35% goes to the next milestone
15% goes to general innovation

My amendment & clarifications:

To clarify, Dev MSCs will be distributed in addition to the BTC
RBBs qualify for the primary and next milestones only if the amount exceeds their RBB amount. (these are the current RBB terms).
General Innovation - this is distributed to anyone doing any sort of positive Mastercoin work on a monthly basis, and goes beyond any normal RBB limits. So if someone did very well for us, regardless if he's an RBB or not, he can get up to $15K + Dev MSC in addition and regardless to any other amounts awarded to him.
Mechanics - I propose that we have everyone list their monthly contributions, and J.R, David and myself will have a judging meeting each month to decide on the allocation. Other board members are welcome to join these meeting.

Note that he's talking about mechanics for the 15% for "general innovation". The other 85% will still be allocated according to the mutual evaluation criteria we've used in the past. The 50% for the primary bounty is the part deducted from the current 300 BTC bounty for distributed exchange.

I'm finishing up my last couple days at my day-job, and my first day full-time on Mastercoin is Thursday. I can't wait!! At the top of my priority list is paying out 3k+ MSC to everybody who has earned bounties so far. I'll post exact amounts later this week once I am full time.

Thanks!

Thanks JR - this is absolutely cool as a lizard's belly!  Glad you are able to do this.  I am sure we will see great results from the efforts.

Guys; timing sucks but Bitcoin-ruby has a problem with one of the transactions in the latest blocks and is stuck. To add to the problems the migration in the new version of Bitcoin-ruby is having problems running on my small-ish SSD because of lack of space.

I'm trying to discover what other options I have to recover the database but it looks like the downtime might last a little longer.

Obviously, the project should buy Tachi some nice equipment and necessary backup apparatus so this same issue doesn't cost the MSC community two days of reset time in some future date.  Ron?

As we will see in today's dev update, Tachikoma is planning to retire his implementation anyway, in favor of consolidation with other implementations and focusing on the mastercoin reference implementation.

As a general rule please keep in mind that the Foundation does not run any services and does not purchase hardware or otherwise pays for operational costs, but rather promotes creation of open source software. It's up to service operators to provision and manage their hardware and software stacks.

the project should buy...
the Foundation does not...  ...purchase hardware or otherwise pays for operational costs
Got it.  Agreed.  But the project is much larger than the foundation.  The foundation should just continue doing what it does.  But there might be another aspect of the project which could support such a transaction.  Otherwise, 'open source' projects would be severely weakened by an inability to put in place hardware needed to advance the goals.  Maybe the 'foundation' could propose schemes by which this sort of matter might be handled.  

I am thinking a Master Protocol Advancement Corporation incorporated in Haiti where prosecutors are less likely to be concerned with its activities - the corporation being non-profit and operational for getting things done which need to be done - without exposing the foundation to any tricky situations .
