Since development seems to be dead, I will do the next update of the core wallet within the next few months.
I don't even know who is still interested in DGC. The last few times we attempted an update, it got sidetracked and didn't end up happening. The process will be much shorter this time and will include the necessities to restore proper function. The amateur code that broke the wallet startup and other such "code" will be removed.
If you are still interested in DGC, please send me a message and let's see what we can do. The good news about there being no real community: fresh start.
We still have strong Chinese investment and a long-term commitment to DGC from btc38, we should build on it before it's too late.
