additional bounty
* as well as the optional fee, Ill add a 2btc bounty if you can add the option for users to donate a percentage of their mining profit to organization of choice (available organizations[icons,link-to-site(eff,fsf,etc),bitcoin-address] would be set in the admin interface)
* 1 btc extra for french localization


I also am from the fearing RoR camp, so while I prefer a php option any submissions that have working installation steps for ubuntu 10.04 and debian 6.0 that work with lighttpd or nginx will be accepted(sorry Im not a apache fan).  I can/will help trouble shoot these steps on my systems.


I can get a seasoned forums bitcoiner to vouch for me or can prove my involvment in other FOSS projects(feel free to ping me on irc).  I have placed 30btc in the following address, it will be sent from this address when conditions are met.

also redditorrex I think your anonymous pool is a awesome idea, and will start(or send it right now) a 7.77btc bounty for you to opensource your efforts!

Now when internationalisation is mentioned is that mean like all the MySql database uses a native table that supports all languages?

After two days' mining, I only got 0.04 BTC. My ATI card works too slow.
Well, I'm very happy to give out all these coins. Your work is truly awesome.

I wish I can support more, but I don't have any USD either
Anyway, Good Luck!!

I like this project.

Awesome that was very helpfull

I've already got a tonne of scripts and such, and every time I go to push it to github I stop and go... wait, don't help the competition.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's thought along such lines 

yeah like buy... no... sell... no... adderall... (great name btw adder 'of' all)

solution: you are oversimplifying and trying to be the James Bond of business
there's like at least three contradictions: simplicity, obscurity, and business all at once. not gonna happen. pick one.

there is no competition when there are few
they will beg to play because they are all on Mars with few options, just like you

there is furious competition at the brink of success
some do well some not so much

there is no competition when there are many
the system is at message saturation and so there are always those who won't match your offering even if you are not in in the top 25

the critical part: the one, who helps the community evolve from few to many, and, who survives the valley of fire in the middle, wins.

or we could just call this thing off because others might leap ahead. so what? adapt. get back in the game. keep it alive.

besides: you can always beat them by adapting faster than they do even if they have your system.

My business partner and I are looking for not just a pool but someone to partner with us as our technical lead to run the pool.

So our bounty of $100 will go up a lot and also include a profitshare if we can find someone who is interested in being the technical lead on a pool project.

We can handle the frontend design, customer service, any costs that come up, marketing & advertising, etc.

I released the first version of my front-end, It isn't up to standards with the bounties around here so I will take no credit in the bounty pool but if you use my software and find it useful you can donate to my address in my signature. Otherwise if you are having trouble with my software I will accept donation BTC to help troubleshoot getting it started although it only takes about 15-25 minutes to get it running.

Nice job !
Do you plan on implementing the missing features so you can claim the bounty ?

[Xenland]

I plan on making a great open source front end, I hope on claiming a bounty that would be nice for getting a vps or maybe even a dedicated server to give a better demonsration and possibly start a pool, if someone else beats me too it great!

nice work!!  I couldnt figure it out just by looking at the source, it would be great if you could take gusti up on his/her offer and get this on the VPS.  As I cant test any miners it at the momment(many errors).

Also can you get a github or gitorious account?  I think that will make for easier project development.

Anyone else still in this race, or are you now scared of xenlands' quick responce?

davout, you still gonna go after the RoRpool?

I shall signup with git hub sounds like a good idea! Gusti has kindly payed for the hosting, unfortunatly kalyhost is being unresponsive at moment I sent a couple of emails regarding the issues that im having trying to connect to ssh or vnc. For somereason they only suppiled the ip address and passwords but no username, I attempted to try my web login username but that didnt work and i pinged and port scanned it said server not found. I also requested that they give me a refund to the sending address if they cant get it back up in 3 days

I do have something in the works, I'll put something online today.
Maybe the bounty can be split if we release something in the same couple of days, maybe his feature list isn't complete yet
We'll see

I know this is probably silly of me, but incase your not familiar with *nix have you tried the username "root"?

Not silly, you are correct. I dont think this person has ever setup a server.

[Xenland]

You guys think your funny but that was the first thing i tried. Like i said the server dosent respond to even type in a password. Normally when you SSH youll aeast get a passwird box to type in to. Vnc is the same way the instant i press connect, it says disconnected. No waiting for connections or nothing i just get dropped. When i login to my KalyHosting my VPS server only shows up in the billing section. There's no way to reboot my server or options to re-install my linux version, and the "Choose Product" selection doesn't say anything, it just says "Choose Product" KalyHost really messed up and I hope they fix it soon.

You're saying the server doesn't even ping ?

Exactly, and I have a confirm online to verify that the server isn't responded. Just timedout

*Update: its been over 36+ hours, still no response from KalyHost and they claim they have 24/7 email support? WT-EFF?

*Update: well i mined 1BTC over the course of 2 days and leetnet.net has been very responsive and I believe my server is running, I'll post back when I have time to install peace mates.
(Still working on contacting KalyHost, thinking about call'em from their whois number almost 2 days)
