An anticipated fix has been committed to master.

[..] written earlier, looks like we now have a fix.

Yep, that's fixed, thanks! Now I get some boost error in Linux when burning coins on the testnet (the Windows / Wine client and the slimcoind daemon are not affected.) I'll look if I can solve it myself as I think it is related to my old Boost version, otherwise I will come back with it here.

I've finally found some time to try out the Web2web technology. It looks awesome as it's really a KISS solution (Zeronet may have more features, but having to run a non-standard program for it is a great barrier for new users).

You intention with the Inscription Service is to provide an easy method to pass magnet links to the blockchain that then could be used for Web2Web-style decentralized published sites, is this correct?

I've examined the Web2Web code (it's so short that even a noob like me can understand it) and it seems to use a block explorer to track modifications/versions of the "decentrally published" web site. I consider that the only weak point of the whole concept (as it could introduce a "single point of failure"), but it's probably unavoidable because otherwise we would have to provide at least a very simple javascript-based SPV client (?) to access to the blockchain data. An option to change the block explorer should be OK.

Anyway, looks like an awesome addition to Slimcoin.

There's a design flaw in the Inscription GUI in that it sends the tx to the wallet's default address and the listing (atm) is of the inscriptions associated with the address of the default account.[...]

OK, I will take this into account or wait a bit then with the inscription service tests.
