Meanwhile - I keep posting replies to this.
I'm not sure why, other than I seriously wonder WTF he is talking about.
BFGMiner was forked by you from cgminer. Simple fact. Please stop making yourself look ultimately stupid in front of everyone.BFGMiner was forked from a cgminer that only supported CPUs and GPUs. Whilest Con was merging BFGMiner back into cgminer, I didn't bother with making independent-but-identical releases, but when he forked cgminer's FPGA codebase out from BFGMiner, I had to begin maintaining it independently. tl;dr: FPGA-capable cgminer is a fork of BFGMiner is a fork of GPU-only cgminer.Eh? plenty of FPGA code was in cgminer LONG BEFORE BFGminer was created.No, before BFGMiner, cgminer was CPU/GPU-only.
Seriously dude? WTF are you talking about?

I came up with the name BFGMiner in IRC 01-Mar-2012 (UTC+11):
14:18 < kanoi> BFGMiner?
...
14:19 < kanoi> B for bitcoin of course
...
14:19 < kanoi> BFG the most well known acronym to FPS'ers
14:20 < kanoi> but also Bitcoin FPGA GPU
The original BFL code you wrote went into cgminer:
5dfc8b69 » luke-jr 2012-01-08 BitForce FPGA support
Again - WTF drugs are you taking? Stay away from silk road!!!
Quote me - I'm not seeing it at all ...
I think that quote right in the middle of it explains why I'm still wondering what on earth you are talking about!
Hell, if you look back I also said that they should send one to ckolivas and put me in the corner for being bad
I'm not claiming any of this phantasy you are indulging in - stop it - I don't want to reply any more on this subject either - stop it!
It's all there in front of you - just read it.
My argument was not specifically about me even ... it was about free miner software developers in general (as the quote above says!)
If that wasn't obvious, then go re-read all my posts again (OMG who would want to do that ;P)

Except that while you claim to be inventing, you're forgetting that BFL support came from me, and you and Con only decided to fork it so that you could steal credit for it...
...
LOL, you got in there a little late....

Where have I or Con ever stolen credit for work you have done?
Where? Where? Where?
Right in the post I quoted from. You were claiming to deserve stuff from BFL because you claim you wrote the driver for them.Where? Where? Where?
You are saying that "need" is something I am inventing, but you know as well as I do that without the support of the free miners, BFL would not be where they are today.
