Did you guys notice an update was pushed out today? What is it?
bamt5_fix_21.tar
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you wonder why there haven't been updates for a long time?
Do you wonder why version 0.6 never made it out of beta?
It's probably because you didn't donate to support the BAMT developer.

We donated 30 BTC to make the new version and now there isn't even a home page for our ad to display on.Same here donated over 10BTC and sold him a 7970 really cheap. Never got my name up or a working version of BAMT that supports 7970's. Pretty Shitty if you ask me.
I didn't realize there were bad feelings about this.
All of the BTC donated towards the 7970 were used for exactly that. I also put in all of the unmarked donations for a period of several months.
Absolutely everything that came in via donations went towards the card, i.e. I didn't make a dime for any of the work I had already put into BAMT. I paid 60 BTC for the card, about $480 I believe.
It took me a couple more months to write version 0.6, which includes support for the 7970s. I did release it for testing, but I never really got any feedback on it. At the time it seemed that interest had moved on to other devices or away from mining altogether (this was back in the days were btc price was kind of stagnant around $8 iirc). Very little chatter on IRC etc. I just got the impression it was too late to matter.
So... how do we make this right? I don't want anybody feeling shitty about things. I can sell the card and send the $ back to whomever donated, or we can make 0.6 more visible, or.... ?
Edit - PS I didn't take the web site down, the DNS was donated by someone and they apparently did not renew it. I forget who that was
