So we have a couple of CryptoNote technology implementations and a lot of discussions around them.

I ask you not to deteriorate existing solutions, but to create a new version of CryptoNote based cryptocurrency that will suit us all.

I'm ready to develop it, but I need to clarify your wishes concerning:
*Coin name
*Emission curve
*Additional features

1337coin! [1CN] - seems legit

i dont think so ^^^^.

a new lunch with fairer distribuition is in order. mro lunched 6 days ago and i can't mine anything. while probably 200k coins are out already :/

What about the minard pool?

Could they mine this coin in private while we only use out CPU? How would this answer to this abuse?

I think there should be some clean transparency and make sure this coin does not get instamined like MRO. Otherwise it will be just a fork 

- instamine: MRO is not instamined. BCN (MRO predecessor) was ninja-mined for two years.
- miner pool: AFAIK, no pool available yet. You are free to come and help setting it up. Even if you are not a coder: promoting monero doesn't require coding skills and could attract coders willing to create such a pool
- hidden pool: if there was one, it might show on the difficulty. I don't have enough technical knowledge to back up my claims, though - probably someone with more technical knowledge could answer, buy I think hidden pool would not hurt the crypto, it would juste better spread the crypto among the hidden pool's users.
- abuse: the real abuse would be botnets. We suspect there is already a botnet at work, considering the difficulty.

A note on style: we are trying hard to be transparent. Mostly everything is done on either forum or IRC (only a few things are done by mail and PM and so far, no decisive action happened this way). The same way, the "monero" account on bitcointalk is a shared account so that several persons can change the thread. The same goes for the website (monero.cc). As for decision-making, we bote on IRC with embedded tools (botmonero handles the votes) and we are planning to implement blockchain-voting so that miner vote, no forum user. Finally, we answered to everyone who PM'ed to ask for joining us.
Considering this, pleas regarding lack of transparency are, dare I say, insulting. Since I usually assume good faith on people, I will consider this plea as being an avatar of "once bitten twice shy" and not genuinely aggressive

That being said, a fork with solid reasons is OK, of course. "Solid reasons" requires argumentation so as long as it is there (and that the argumenter are ready to abandon their plan if they prove wrong - otherwise, this is not argumentation, this is sophism), no problem.

For heaven's sake; what is this thread for!? How does it relate to the plethora of other Bitmonero/Bytecoin/Monero/..? threads out there?

For one thing, if you're doing a code fork, it's less work to keep the existing PoW. That wouldn't necessarily be a reason to not change for a good reason, but it is a reason to not change without a reason.

My wishes for a Cryptonote-based coin are similar to Peercoins advantages:

a) Powersaving techology of mining/minting, all the CPUs running with full power hurts me.

b) A small inflation of max. 1% every year (in the long run), for stabilizing the price, for substitution of lost coins, and for better secure the network, see this hint here:
The reward for PoS minters should differ from Peercoin: It should be proportional to the processed coin age. But if possible, other than with Peercoin, the coin age of the minters coins should not be considered, not to support big wales even more.
