Wlii spin up a few extra linux boxes to help support the network. Any programmers here or is it only me?

I'm program.  I am pretty deep into hardening the client against strip-mining.  I occasionally have questions on data structures, type changes, and the like.

I have some scripts that build a VM on an Ubuntu box, apt-get the necessary support stuff, and build the client.  It is not completely turn-key, but that is the goal.  Each new VM is a clone of the others, so I can do clean builds, and simply erase a VM for cleanup.  Of course, there are little bugs that I don't know about, because I wrote the thing and I have work habits that don't expose them to me.

A test of that VM would be for you to clone and build ahmed's repository.  My diffs are against his work.

git@github.com:ahmedbodi/bytecoin.git


One thing on my wish list is to do the apt-gets in the VM build process so that I can also make the Windows .EXE.

One of my efforts has the SHA-256 of the binary be signed by the builders Bytecoin address and then scp'd back to me.  This is probably in disrepair, because I don't do regression testing each day.  It may also not be in the github, because I have not released much while I am testing.

It might make sense to join #altcoin-dev on freenode.
