I am working on on time-based hopping and it will definitely be available in v0.6.5. By time-based hopping I mean using the round time instead of round shares to hop. This will enable both bitcoinpool and polmine, as they both provide the round duration on their web pages.

There's also a new hopping algorithm that takes pool hash rate into account coming, it should be better than the current simplistic STATIC_FAST.

@scatterbrain I can only see the round duration, are they advertising the current number of shares somewhere and I've missed it?

Thanks, doing my best to provide a good product! muyoso already beat me to answering your questions.
