1) No, the new VoIP will not be in the next release and was previously mentioned it would not.
The plan is eventually to write our own VoIP hopefully providing you with something of a bit better quality than anything existing. We may however use something in the mean time till the Kore VoIP is written.
2) I like the idea to leave the amount staking up to the individual to support the Kore Network as was mentioned in the website under the Browser Section but we may need to continually remind ones to stake some coins to support this unique free feature to surf the net anonymously.
3) All calls to regular phone numbers through the Gateway would need to be charged for. The cheapest way is to use a service provider but the calls won't be as cheap. Alternatively the software and service software could be purchased and costs between 4-7k. I was considering paying for this software but am no longer able to.
4) Due to a serious illness and lack of funding the Original FIRE Browser will no longer be in the next wallet release though we are working on providing you an alternative.
Thanks MM,
1) Yes I thought so, I just wanted to clarify that before we got too indepth on the charging of the VOIP, although it is a discussion that should always be progressing it currently seems it is not a vital point for the next release.
2) If we could somehow lock the browser tab unless the wallet is staking, that would guarantee users would atleast need some coins in the wallet to use the feature, but would not limit it to larger KORE holders like setting a minimum holding requirement would.
3) We may have to just use a VOIP service first, then as it moves forward setup our own. Is this the part VIOR could potentially setup and we pay them as the service provider, I recall you mentioning something like this?
4) Does this mean that it won't be coded from scratch, more based on 3rd party software? It sounds like FIRE can continue if things get back on track which is good.
5) I will go ahead and donate .1 or 2 in the next couple of days, it might mean pulling my small buy support, hopefully some other junk sells though hehe.
