Another couple of questions:
- do you need to mine to create new coin even if you burn them or burning itself is like mining?

No, you can burn coins and leave the wallet connected and it will mint - without having to mine (PoW). If you have burnt enough coins to find blocks, you will get rewards. It is very similar to Proof of Stake, only that you must burn actively. Only if you have your wallet encrypted, then you must unlock it with the walletpassphrase RPC command or the GUI function.

- the higher return in case of burning is not guaranteed, right?

No, it's not guaranteed, but there must be some rare conditions to not getting your "investment" back (at least in a couple of months). First, you could have burnt too few coins, so your probability is too low to find blocks - like if you're mining Bitcoin with a CPU now. Second, there could be the case that the "burners" have burnt so many coins that they will never get their investment back. But that is an very extreme situation. What is possible is that in times where many people burn coins, you would have to wait some weeks or even months to actually "profit" from it.

I've actually burnt on an account as few as 3000 SLM and get regularly burning rewards, but it lasted a while to come into the "profit zone".

Can you make description of all features in the new wallet?

I'm still testing it and run into an error (see below). If I solve them, yes - that's one of the planned items of the new web site.

I still have 50 000 SLM for giveaway. I think maybe you can have some address where we can send certain amounts which can be used for marketing, graham dev, and so. Maybe some re-design of logo or wallet.

My Slimcoin wallets at this moment are a bit unstable (I'm setting up Slimcoin accounts on different platforms to test the new 0.5 wallet, the old 0.3 wallet crashes regularly) so at this moment I would not like to "administrate" a bounty fund or organize a giveway or something like that. That can change in the future. Anyway, for now, I think the only person that deserves a bounty is Graham for his excellent work.

In the future I could involve more into marketing/communication, and in this case I could set up an account for donations (e.g. for a blog with regular news), or issue a kind of asset for that. I'm currently trying to understand @Graham's proposal for a future usage of OP_RETURN in conjunction with RDF, that probably would give us the possibility to issue assets for crowdfunding, apart from the "collective intelligence" network (web site decentralized storage) he proposed (if you're reading @gjhiggins, I'll shortly ask you some questions about that because I like your proposal.).

Now to my 0.5 wallet testing issues:

I am running into the following error when compiling the QT 0.5 Linux wallet on a machine with QT 5.6:

When compiling inscriptiontablemodel.cpp, make complains about setSecsSinceEpoch not being supported.

I have found out that this function is only supported in QT 5.8 and higher. In older QT versions, however, there seems to be a similar function called setMSecsSinceEpoch.

Unfortunately I don't "speak C++", but is there a workaround for that using the older function? QT 5.8 is pretty new, it seems (the stable release was in January) and so maybe a fallback would make sense for older operating systems.
