Once the source comes out you can feel free to peer around and look for the differences, but unfortunately I can't release it yet (otherwise some naughty nixheads will compile and start mining).
Hey I'll mine it. When is the launch? Converting your epoch gives me 18:00 GMT on the 5th August?
Yep, EPOCH is to prevent timezone confusion. Whatever is your local time is the time.

I prefer reliability over novelty. X11 is cool, but I'd like to stick to something I'm more experienced with.
