Free (like in freedom) pool for Datacoin (and Primecoin, maybe)

[gigo]

Hello,
I wanted to set up a small pool for my machines mining Datacoin (which is a great, reasonable coin I have to admit). It turns out that there is no open software/source for this purpose, as I was Informed somewhere here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=384112.msg4356237#msg4356237
I think having a pool is very convenient even if you have 2 machines mining - everything is gathered in one wallet, which makes life easier.
Can anybody share some info on how to build a pool for primes-based coins? There are only few of them now. I think it could increase the popularity of the coin as more people would be involved in building pools and spreading the news.
I would like to invest some time in programming the thing - I just want to get as much information about it as possible before I start reinventing the wheel (unfortunately - it is really like that).
Any ideas? Is there any primecoin-based pool mastah able to share some wisdom with the community?
Best,
g

You dont really need a pool for what you want to do...

Ive read somewhere that some forks of jhprimeminer can use the json-rpc with primecoind's getwork/getblocktemplate and mine from there. i.e. you would need to run primecoind in one place, and jhprimeminer on any number of slaves... unfortunately this seems to be windoze only. xolominer does not talk to primecoind.

but +1 for your question. Im looking for a nice and effecient private pool... for multiple slaves to mine against...

Here is an old thread I found:

It looks like several different people looked it into and then went no further.
