okay thank you.. is there a possibility to combine the two branches again? it seems to be very uselesss to split this very small pool in two even smaller, separate networks..
In 3 months jtoomimnet will fork off to segwit2x anyway so it seems to be pointless.
Ok that is true, however I believe that jtoomim is planning to let his chain automatically split in 3 months. One part would be following segwit2x, and the other part segwit. In that case it is still possible to end up with two separate P2pool networks that actually follow the same Bitcoin rules. It depends all on how much miners are following jtoomim but do not support segwit2x. To be honest I have no idea how many people are in that case. Also, I don't know if jtoomim is still working on this automatic split.
Just a hypothetical question (I'm not yet far enough in understanding the code, so this might be gibberish): In case the split of jtoomim's network happens, would it not be possible to merge the two versions that follow segwit, so that the reasons that some miners have to follow jtoomim even though they only support segwit is partially alleviated?
