Is this going to be Scrypt (GPU) or CPU only mining Huh

I think this is covered in Ethereum.org/ethereum.html

It should be minable by cpu and gpu -- For Dagger, the optimal core:memory ratio will be 1:512MB, so I could see people mining on both. I'm interested to see how cellphones and lower-powered cpus do in this environment.

Oh how I wish we could access testnet. Cry

We will switch our PoW from Dagger to a hybrid PoW/PoS system to be developed via a bountied competition conducted by our university partners and open to the general community for participation. The terms will be announced in late february including judges, specifications and the university partners.

So they're not using sha256 or scrypt, they were planning to use Dagger, but now they're talking about a hybrid. So I'm not sure if we'll start with dagger and switch later, or if the network doesn't go live until after that's all sorted out. I assumed the network would be live in a week, but maybe not?
