Thanks :-)
Would you and others mind also donating? See here please:
* https://chess-fan.github.io/#donate

So far only 1 nice person has donated (he will out himself if he likes, I call him "my angel" :-) )


>Do you have some history on github or other ways to know your history
Ofc, I have a history, but I wanna keep it separate for now...
Because all of what I do now is:
* still analyzing this coin and the community.

One result can be:
* it's not worth my time to continue here :-(


> in case you want to post the binary you've compiled?  I've compiled in C++ but just using the Borland compiler and not sure what the process is to recompile this code.   We haven't had a coder in this thread for about 8 months.

I want to state again my initial thoughts:
* "But let's not forget... first the current dev (aka: Isolani159) needs to be contacted about his plans (why he did not update yet; his ongoing plans with ChessCoin; ...) before starting something that brings only negative thoughts, frustration into this all - this is surely not what we all need or want!"
* from my blog: https://github.com/chess-fan/thoughts

We need this:
* 1. clear statement by the current dev
* 2. if he makes none, we need a poll (e.g. that we can show that we have >50% of the network balance on our side)

because otherwise if I'd be an exchange I'd decline the new version for obvious reasons:
* a newcomer could just claim his version is better

Let's not forget, a fork of code can always be made...
but the exchanges need a strong reason why they should also install the new version
* there is strong support by the stakeholders
* and reasons/facts about the current dev side

My assumption is that this process might take some while (2-3 months?)


The 2nd entry in my blog is dedicated to the checkpoint:

Please see the bug report for an overview:
* no uptodate checkpoint: https://github.com/COINFORCHESS/ChessCoin/issues/1

Why is it good to have a checkpoint ?
* at least until the checkpoint time the blockchain can not be manipulated anymore
* the syncing speed for new users will be better
  * since their clients with a newer checkpoint will decline clients which are on a fork

It looks great what you're doing.  Do you have some history on github or other ways to know your history in case you want to post the binary you've compiled?  I've compiled in C++ but just using the Borland compiler and not sure what the process is to recompile this code.   We haven't had a coder in this thread for about 8 months.
