Update from the devs.


The official pool is back up and running. We took measures to make sure it won't be down again.

Right now we are working on the following items:

• Updating the PoW to make it asic resistant.  We will likely follow the Monero implementation but have not made a decision yet.  @crypto_sr is the owner of this task
• Increasing transaction sizes (see also https://github.com/ombre-projects/ombre/pull/34/) as some large transactions get blocked by this. @sadbatman is the owner of this task
• Implement an Android wallet (@sadbatman is the owner)

We also made a prerelease last week available here:
https://github.com/ombre-projects/ombre/releases/tag/1.2.1a

This is an experimental release and please only use it when you are willing to give use feedback on bugs & issues. The prerelease contains the following changes:

• Fixed DNS checkpointing: we now have DNSSEC servers running for this.
• Enable HTTP compression on RPC communication.
• Enforce (and recover) strict file permissions on wallet files.

As always - please report problems on github or come hang out in the Telegram group.
