@DEV guys: any news? We again missed another planned date (7th Sep), no wallets are available and again no information provided. Any real planned date when we can have at least wallets ready? We need to act immediately as coin is going to die and without wallets and trading we cannot help you ...

I am sure that we all appreciate the fact that the devs are under a bit of pressure, so they need to be given time to sort all this stuff out.

That being said, the wallet situation is clearly the limiting factor in SLG's development, and until that is sorted we are going nowhere.

I don't think SLG is likely to die, but the longer it takes to fix the wallet issue the greater the risk becomes.

I really hate hassling the devs, but occasional updates here would certainly help to calm people's nerves. Wink

Dev team, could you please post a short line once a week to update us all?

Thanks.

We had an issue last week where all of the wallets (v1.2, v1.4, v1.5, v1.5.1 in my tests) would crash on launch with the following error:

Matt, Spencer, and I quickly isolated the issue to a Bittrex API call. We removed the call and related code and pushed the changed to github as v1.5.1.1 Full and Lite edition. Bittrex DID resolve the issue on their end within 48 hours and all the wallets will launch successfully now as the API call is not failing and causing the issue.

We are working to make the wallet, and any calculations within, not dependent on values returned by bittrex and better error control for values that may or may not be returned so it will not prevent the wallets from launching. We are working to have all that ready when Mammix does find time to build.

We do apologize for this unforeseen speed bump.

Well done on that fix, and thanks for the prompt response; it is greatly appreciated.

I may have missed an earlier announcement, but who is Mammix?

Speed bumps, unforeseen or not, need not be apologised for!! You're all doing great. Grin

Sorry your question, "who is Mammix?", went unanswered. Mammix is, simply put, a developer with all the dependencies in place to build the windows wallet for us as we have ran into issues with the most up-to-date dependencies working correctly in our build environments. He is not a team member but, willing to help Sterlingcoin as we prepare for the fork by assisting us with the windows build.

On the topic of the fork more specifically, we passed block 300000 today and have 50000 to go before the fork.

Also, we have made progress with the Mac wallet recently, but is still not ready to release.
