Y not create more bounties the new wallet needs testing? Any immediate work? The new pr work im doing is going to be good shit I suggest it be worth more than 12 shares its going
to wider audience and I will adhere to higher standards ( up to quality admins to judge before release)

I would like to propose a bounty for qt images and new icons.  8 shares for the images and icons used in the qt, 4 shares for the second best set of icons.

Any objections, or should anything be changed??

I went ahead and did this...uploading and updating the update thread soon. v1.0.2 will have the new images/icons... testnet and normal included aswell as images to be used in the installer (nsis banner and sidebar image)

Also the installer, there is builtin support in the source code repo for an NSIS installer, and I think it may be tied to the build release system, which would automate the installer with correct version information. This is the preferred method to create an installer instead of manually. I propose we use this installer. I will try to make an install with the new client to show you guys.

I don't know the windows build or release process, but as linux, bitcoin 0.8.6 has intergrate automake system, which is a great step up for building system. if not too hard, could we just update it 0.8.6?

I want to fully testwith 0.8.5 first to make sure we didn't introduce any malfunction in the way it works. The code is totally different and we have to be confident that we can roll fwd from this point on. After testing is done I will work on 0.8.6 and look ahead to 0.9 upcoming. We still have to decide on the fee changes and/or implications to inflation rate structure if we go there. This will cause a hard fork.

inflation? it will big hard fork and will change many thing... I don't know we have this discussed before...

I just brought it up because the fees are still based on 1000x higher fees with bitcoin based on the 50 coin block reward but its changed now.. so the fees may need to double to match bitcoins now and when I first joined the project I thought the goal was to be 1000x inflationary than bitcoin but that relation breaks when bitcoin reward halves so I proposed we halve with it until say a min of like 1000 coins per
block when bitcoin is at 1... this will keepthe ratio up ttill this point and then split off. I just threw it out there as my idea of a good idea may not be the right choice and unthinkingbit makes the final decision.. He knows Ive been about it for a while now.

So my question is if we dicussing fees do we discuss inflation too? or meh.
