Regarding the 20mb live stress test.  I last spoke with Gavin and Peter Todd about 6-8 weeks ago and it was the understanding that they would get us the software package for the test and then we would do the stress test.  They never delivered that software and they didn't give any reasoning for it either.  They seemed very excited with the idea of iXCoin being the test mule so I'm not sure why they didn't follow through.

I agree about all the needed services but until our partners decide to be more active not much will happen.  That's why I think we should at least do what we can as a community and taking care of the premine issue is something we can tackle.
