How about we skip the IE part, once was enough. Right now we're working on what we need to to keep Blackcoin strong and relevant. Part of that involves moving away from a single dev to a dev team, that was not an intentional part of the plan but when your original dev seemingly abandons you with zero communication there is no other choice if you want to keep the project alive. Nobody is wishing ill on rat4, in fact, we wish he were still a part of the team but things moved on in his absence out of necessity.
I also wish that rat4 would still play a part in Blackcoin's development. But we can't wait forever as Blackcoin needs to go forward to face the evergrowing competition. Janko33 has been doing great job and I have utmost trust that he will continue to do that. We might re-evaluate this situation once rat4 can produce detailed explanation about future of BLK and his attendance.
This reflects my sentiments too. If he makes a 360*, even on new chain, I wouldn't mind providing support to both projects. But at this time, seems unlikely.
