Which brings me to some important questions about where are we heading with charity marketing:
Is SoL going to be the "official" NXT charity?
Are we going to make an ongoing commitment to them, or move on to another good cause after we hit the target?
Are multiple charity projects a good idea?
Does any one have any suggestions for another charity to support?

I think it would be better to support 10 charities by 10.000 than 1 by 100.000. 1 would be nice if it was some famous or viral charity. Tons of Nxters already suggested to donate for Wikileaks foundation. If Nxt is going to become the whole platform for all decentralized applications and internet, it would be nice to support those who fight for decentralized internet and get their attention. + Wikileaks provides huge media attention and contacts.

Some people mentioned Electronic Frontier Foundation  https://www.eff.org/ and it is about the rights on the internet. So it is followed by 200.000 people from crypto and digital medias. EFF already accepts Bitcoin (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/05/thank-you-bitcoin-community) and has got 3xmore followers on Facebook and 400x more followers on Twitter (180.000) than songsoflove.org. We have the same goal here - to have internet without censorship of the governments. Nxt will provide it.

Other charities we might focus on are the green ones, since Nxt is not only about fight against controll of the governments, but also fight for lower electricity spent in crypto world.

+1, We need to focus on technology related foundations.  SOL will get us zero new users and the whole "we need to play on tragedy" is complete BS.  Wikileaks and EFF are very good causes with much bigger exposure than SOL.  I'm not sure why this isn't obvious to everyone.  I suggest we start a campaign for Wiki and EFF.

Who has the account with the unclaimed coins and how does community decides how to spend them?

[wesleyh]

You can now send coins or messages to account aliases:

http://nxtra.org/nxt-client/ (testnet only)

Simply type the @ character, followed by the alias name. If it's connected with an account you should see what is displayed in the screen below.

You can register your alias, as format you should use the following:

acct:0000000000000000@nxt (make sure there are no spaces in between)

You can message me via @wesleynxt

In the final version (non-testnet), I'll make it so that you can only send to an alias after it has had 1440 confirmations, but for testnet this does not matter.

There is an interesting article on Coindesk about cryptocurrency's tipping and gift/donation economy -

We have 3 treasurers right now, but the three committees which are responsible for development, marketing and infrastructure bounties are not elected yet.

Can someone send me a handful of testNXT to test this? I just updated a few aliases and wanted to test if I edited the URI correctly. Thanks!

Better to begin with EFF.

I've downloaded 0.7.5 new (from nxtcrypto) deleted the previous version, started from fresh, blockchain downloaded.
After a minute or so the above messages start appearing. Deleted the nxt_db folder, but again after a minute those messages start appearing.
I don't think I'm on a fork, because all my transactions show up, even the forged block from the day before yesterday.

What's going on? I want to be absolutely sure I don't lose any NXT and I want to do some transactions.
Could someone please assist me (in non-technical wording, okay technical is okay, just not programming deep-into-nxt stuff)

One another (maybe) bug in 0.7.5:

Sometime I noticed, that some transactions disappear from the transaction list. Total account sum remains the same. After F5 they appear again.

[ChuckOne]

According to Wiki TF decides the next forger dependent on the previous block. So, if there is a partition of the network N1 and N2, then the nodes in these two different partitions have different TF outputs.

So, there are two cases: (next blocks/accounts are C, C' (part of N1) and D (part of N2); TF1 and TF2 are the output of TF of N1 and N2 respectively)
1) TF1 says C; TF2 says D => branches will get longer as foreign blocks get rejected
2) TF1 says C; TF2 says C' => C will get accepted; C' will get rejected as N1 expects C => What does N2? I would say: penalize C', ignore C and move on on its branch.

Still don't see how this conflict can be resolved. I need some idea for that.

Nxt uses Bitcoin's consensus rule. How would Bitcoin resolve this conflict?

IIRC, each node analyzes the known graph and assumes the longest chain as the correct one.

Had that to, sometimes one transaction dissapeared, after login again it is back.

pls could anyone provide a basic info about client "Nxs" Like 3 sentences about it, maybe even 2 pictures.
