I just realized a significant short-cut that I can take.  I am doing that silly thing of programming with urgency, brewing much coffee, and putting off sleep.  I hope it works.

The short-cut will eliminate the need to solve a difficult problem during the transition from BTE to BTE-HT. 

I am in the flush of thinking everything is now solved.  If you have programmed very long, you will recognize this phase, and laugh.

However, some questions have a new urgency.

1.  Can anyone build the windows client?  If not, I can learn how, but it will cause a delay.
2.  How much is my effort worth, in coins?
3.  What is the name and symbol of the forked coin?  BHT, for Bytecoin-Hard Turtle, comes to mind but there is a name collision with the BitHub exchange.  I think that keeping the same name after a hard-fork will cause confusion.

I have artwork and another name ready to go, but I want to hear from the community.
