NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[mcjavar]

ATTENTION!

The following roles have to be filled in order to speed up the AE development (Atomic Crosschain / AE Gateway) of James!

JAVA Developer
- with knowledge about Bitcoin protocol (or a really fast learner)

Tester / Power User (up to 3 people)
- we need at least one full time Tester / Power User (but part time would be also ok)
- with some technical knowledge preferably
- experience in writing testcases would be great


I think I don´t have to explain why this feature is needed and what it would do with the price of Nxt...

We´ve already received some positive responses, but we still need skilled coders and testers!

Please let me know about your thoughts!

And we are still looking for talented people to join the AE Gateway dev team!

Here is version 2.2 of my Windows/Mac OSX NXT client "NXT Solaris".

Thanks for your excellent work, I could only try out Solaris on XP in virtualbox because my OS is Ubuntu. Do you have any plan for a linux version?

When does this btc38 voting end?

We have tough competition, it might be a close finish.

They are dumb beyond capability to live life if they only add the single one that gets the most votes.
When they see hundreds have voted for NXT, they would have to be as bad at business as MtGox to not add us.

I never understood why mtgoy didn´t add other coins...

Probably because Mark is one of the worst business men in the history of the Universe

Glad they didn't add and lose more coins.

FreeRider beta0.1 released:





git clone https://github.com/l8orre/FreeRider

cd FreeRider

./nxtFreeRider.py



Also available at:

edit: there was a minor bug re. logFile writing in the 'moneySent' confirmation LED - sending money worked, but the LED flashed RED instead of green - FIXED!

[marcus03]

yup it is there
that is a testnet account
and the effective balance just increased

Could be due to testnet blockchain being reset about 24 hours ago.

They have USD pairing with integrated merchant services tools. It's worth stopping by the thread and showing some Nxt love.

Isnt that what we all want? Distribution is what it is. No amount of complaining will change that. However, anybody can step up and start doing useful stuff and get rewarded. Anybody. Even a simple C programmer like me.

I am not a developer. I am just a guy who likes crypto and bought a few NXT and reads this thread to see how the development is coming.
I still can contribute a thought on what I think I see as a big flaw in NXT gaining widespread adoption and try to influence the developers by making suggestions. I can play musical instruments but if someone doesn't like what I'm playing I don't say "well if you spent more time learning to play you could play it yourself". That would be a copout.

As I stated, personally I would forge for free and am doing that now. My concern is about down the road when more users come along and less of them are going to be intimately involved and willing to run a program on their computer, especially one that opens them up to DDOS attacks or potentially worse for no reason. People follow the path of least resistance. I'm just one guy, but not the only one, who sees this as a potential serious flaw. The developers are busy with higher minded stuff and I think are a little bit removed from average users. That's why suggestions from nobodies like me can be helpful, or not. But to say we should be doing your job and developing your program for you is a little much.

James, I think that what you say about anybody being able to step up and contribute is not really true. By what means is this possible? Like Brian says, not everyone is a programmer, and even if they are, it doesn't seem as there is a way to contribute in a proficient, meaningful way. By what means can someone help? Who is organizing the community in this way? I know that there are certain groups of you who are working on things, but as far as I have seen, participating as you have implied is a closed shop. I hope with the coming to power of the comitees elect, that this scenario will change, and someone will conduct some sort of organization of community resources. But as of the way things are right now, your statement is false, and people can't just "step up".

I am not a programmer, but still can "step up".
I am organizing the team for James to work on the AE Gateway, I am trying to get nev devs on board to work with the core dev team and am trying to organize the AE testing.
While I have a job where I have to work 50-60 a week.

You could step up and help us writing test cases for the AE testing.

Your statement is invalid.

[Emule]

yes that is the faith of nxt
