Well, I've been thinking about this for a while, and I really want to do this for myself, as I find the web interfaces too slow. I don't want to do it in java or anything else, as I want top speed, so I'll end up in C/C++ or Rust (been reading about it lately and I think it's an excellent high performance language).
Goal is to write first a library that could be linked to a console or later a UI tool, but the first implementation would be a console tool that would enable me to do transactions on the cmd line, really fast (maybe even write a ncurses UI, if there is a need).
So, I'm going to start the project anyway, but just thought I'd see if there is any interest from other people. I want to make it as abstracted as possible so that I can easily add new exchanges, but originally I'll start with cryptsy. I'm not really in a rush, and I can't spend more than a couple of hours each day -unless I get enough funding for it, in which case, I could even affort to work on it full-time for a period.
Now, why should one trust me? I'm not really into hiding behind nicknames, I'm a Debian Developer since 1999, but you can read about it on my site
http://freevec.org. I'm not really *asking* for funding, I'll write this tool anyway, but if I *do* get some funding, I'll just justify writing it faster and I could add features that I didn't think about.
At the very least, I'd be interested for comments/suggestions.
PS. Of course the tool will be open sourced!
