I am now downloading the block chain and rebuilding the database on CCE.

I am having a hard time grabbing peers, was there also a network version change that would prevent the new client from connecting to older versions? (Unlikely, but I thought I should ask just in case)

Also,

Do you have plans to integrate Novacoin network hash rate calculation that was released in a recent Novacoin commit, into BitBar?

It would certainly help me out to have the developer patch the daemon, then to attempt to patch it myself, without the intimate knowledge of the Bitbar code base the developers have.
