Well, that is of course that "Core" wallet includes code of cut-down mining pool.
Maybe trying to simplify the software and excluding that part, as I humbly advised long ago, is still better?
Core Wallet does not need bundled mining software :-)
And there is no reason to not make separate version with solo mining enabled for those who want it.
All good points.
BTW, what code branch should I look into to base new generation pool on it?
Just use "master" (
https://github.com/datacoinproject/datacoin-core), there's no specific branch (because the Yandex tar dumps were copies not clones, so no upstream commit history), so feel free to organise it any way that suits you.
Please note, I lost track of the Yandex dumps during the flurry of Windows-specific changes and don't know how that actually played out, i.e. whether there are any critical changes that should now be included.
Cheers
