Like a bitcointalk archaeologist, I went back into the past of these two accounts
...

I found out a bit more about this:

I just realized there are actually TWO repos on github/soilcurrency/
...
I tend to believe we should be using the "gsoil 1.4.0" - but why does the "gsoil 1.3.3" have a newer commit date, AND is based on newer ethereum code?
Anyone?

abvhiael -in his early 2016 posts- had not mentioned any sourcecode, so no answer from that.

But

soil (Peter) in his 2016 posts, had announced new versions.

The latest such post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1176709.msg14336623#msg14336623 was on March 27, 2016.

When you download that e.g. ... SOILsafe-win64-0-5-2.zip, and unpack it, the
Code:
SOILsafe-win64-0-5-2\resources\node\gsoil\gsoil.exe version
results in
Code:
Gsoil
Version: 1.4.0
Protocol Versions: [63 62 61]
Network Id: 42
So that was a "Gsoil/v1.4.0/windows/go1.6"



BUT in May 2016 he talked about a mining attack:


And that ominous 1.3.3 repo was updated on May 12th. Perhaps as a reaction to that attack?
Was it ever finished?

Just wondering because there are reasons to believe that the 1.3.3 is actually newer code (than the 1.4.0), but he forgot to increase the version number.
