I came across a post about a raspbian (rPi) based mining dist. called PIckaxe, I believe the post was on Reddit, but I can't find it ANYWHERE! 

The post had two links:

and
https://github.com/stronginthearm/PIckaxe.

While credit should go where it's due:  The other rPi dist. is awesome, but I have a preference of Raspbian over Arch., and that cat.  Seriously, F' that cat .wav/mp3... (Disclaimer, I plan to donate to the project I end up going with, but I'm going to do so via my time and abilities, not by farming out my equipment... especially when I can put something together myself that gives the same results.).

Won't digress any further.  Here's what I know...
I like PIckaxe, and want to play with it more. 
I ran 0.2.2 of the alternative, but it crashed within a day or two.  PIckaxe with my modifications has been running flawlessly for several days.


As it's GPL licensed, I'd like to start extending it a bit...
--Add columns to the status table (Total Shares, Rejected (and %), HWErrors (and %)... (Complete).
--Not a huge fan of how security was handled in orig. version (Completed limiting access in a testing version, with more changes planned).
--Want to add option of CGMiner (currently defaults to BFG).  (Mostly done).
--Want to add additional watchdog features, and change the start script(s) for the miners.
--etc.


But I'd like to collaborate and contribute with the original author.. my intention isn't to take someone else's code, or release a new project...  My efforts to contact him for the last several days have fallen short.

Anyone know stronginthearm?  Please have him PM me, or at least open discussion about what his intentions are for the code!

Thanks!
