sorry for the problems with the 0.61 package. I made the Electrum webpage link to version 0.60 until this is resolved.
in the meantime, please use git if you want to test version 0.61

In ver 059b I was able to access my wallet on a Live-CD - a popup asked for the seeds and the wallet came up. But in 061 I get error: ~$ electrum Traceback (most recent call last): File “/usr/local/bin/electrum”, line 148, in <module> gui = gui.ElectrumGui(wallet) File “/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/electrum/gui_lite.py”, line 36, in __init__ with open(“data/style.css”) as style_file: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘data/style.css’
I realize that the download probably was for 060 . But same error.

Erm.. all of sudden I can't connect to any electrum servers. It keeps saying Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking Not connected poking and does nothing . At first I thought it was because of old client, but upgrading to .59 or .60 doesn't change anything

Some errors for you: I clicked into the "Enter a bitcoin address..." box, then clicked the "Receive" button: RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/duncant/electrum/lib/gui_lite.py", line 344, in focusOutEvent if self.text() == "": RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object I also encountered this error, but I'm having trouble replicating it: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/duncant/electrum/lib/gui_lite.py", line 244, in amount_input_changed amount = D(str(amount_text)) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/decimal.py", line 542, in __new__ if isinstance(value, basestring): RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded in __instancecheck__ (I'm on a mac, in case you couldn't tell by the pathnames in the tracebacks)

I figured out how to replicate that bottom error. In the lite gui, click on the ### EUR to change it to USD. Then click on the "... and amount" text box.

Yes, unfortunately, I am having some hosting issues at the moment. For now, please use the source distribution.

Any major changes in the new release (besides the lite gui)?

I'm very new to electrum but I like it a lot. Like the mnemonic to restore your wallet but doesn't this always depend on the electrum servers operating? Why not make the electrum wallet into a p2p network with all the privet back up keys distributed among the wallets instead of a server. If this takes up to much resource's for every wallet why not have a fee system set up of 0.0006 transactions fess so 0.0001 eaxtra and a private key recovery of 0.0006% fee of your holdings to be distributed amongst wallet network seed wallets. I could be wrong about my idea I'm very new to electrum but with needing a dedicated server to back up your wallet wouldn't using a decentralised p2p network instead of depending on the servers be a better idea Sorry if all of that just sounds like boulder-dash I'm new to electrum and just though depending on dedicated servers makes it vulnerable to attack and/or shutdown.

No. You can always generate private keys from the seed (the mnemonic), as long as you have the source code of the generation process. but that still depends on being able to download electrum no if you didn't save the source If it does maybe make the wallet into some kind or encrypted p2p for downloading the wallet So making electrum into a clone of the original wallet but instead of sharing the blockchain it shares the electrum wallet download.

If you have the client then you have the source. The possibility of it not being available online AND no one having a client anymore is practically zero. As for the rest of your post I don't understand what you're trying to say.

Or at least every (or some) wallets act as torrent seed on on I2PSnark - ( http://www.ghacks.net/2007/06/06/anonymous-bittorrent-with-i2psnark/). So the ability to obtain an electrum client is taken away from central servers.

How do you update it and ensure that all the versions are consistent? You can run your own server, too.
