Ok, really newbie question. But I will rather look stupid once that stay stupid forever. When a new transaction is generated it goes into a block and then eventually that block is confirmed by miners. How does a transaction get more than one confirmation? is the whole block re-sent to miners or is the transaction repackaged in another block? and when is the transaction no longer confirmed again?

A transaction is simply distributed on the Bitcoin network. Technically, that means it gets into the 'mempool' of Bitcoin nodes. Any pool/miner can choose which transactions in their 'mempool' they put it in their 'block work', but until it is included in a confirmed block, it's effectively just in the 'mempool' of all the nodes that accepted it and any nodes they passed it on to. After a period of time they may remove it from the mempool. In our case, with the payout transaction, it's a zero fee transaction, so most pools/miners won't include it in their work, and many wont pass it on.

Ignore BIP148 - it's simply an attempt by a bunch of users to take control of Bitcoin away from miners - mining is the design of Bitcoin and it will stay that way. I'll sort it out within the next week. I'll hopefully be able to put the new KDB code live tomorrow, so that will finally be out of the way. Looks like I'll simply have to accept that Bitcoin mining majority is going to accept some form of SegWit - and make sure when it activates, the pool will work on any and all SegWits that happen to be blundering around ... Pretty much every block now has the /NYA/ 'expression of interest' in it and NYA effectively means SegWit also. Seems Core has managed to con/force everyone into accepting it, pretending it's a block size solution Don't forget that if it activates, your 1xxx addresses will cost 4 times as much to use per byte than 3xxx addresses (yeah they really like their dodgy P2SH addresses and are forcing everyone to risk all their BTC on those dodgy addresses) Once I've got that all ready I'll post about the details and then switch over the main work generator to using whatever is necessary.

My A7s finally got out of customs...on the road again...yippee-hoo... Ups? Nope...I'm a cheapskate and, if possible, I ship miners via USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate. A miner will fit in a large flat rate box, and I can send one to Labrador for USD$60 compared to over $100 for FedEx or UPS. It doesn't matter what carrier you use...customs can be a PITA in any case. I was just a bit perturbed because this is the second time in two shipments (this one, and my earlier 741s coming from Canaan) that either US or Canada customs has dropped a dime on me. Oh, well...they're moving (the shipment), my 741s are hashing away in my bath, and I've got a new batch of homemade fudge ice cream. Life is tolerable.

You'd have to be running a bitcoin node connected to the fibre relay to get a 'close to accurate' idea: - look in the debug.log for the previous block (475569) arrival time, and then our block (475570) arrival time and then the next block (475571) arrival time. 22 seconds from 69 to 70, then 8 seconds from 70 to 71.
