Thanks for the update.

Does the dev team know how many forks are out there, and which 1 are they are going choose.

My vote is for the coinium folk as this seam to be the only really active folk.
No, and we're trying not to control or manipulate the forks either.  Our focus has been to document and communicate every process and to work openly with all from the community - including exchanges and pools - that will work with us.

For now, I want to echo Blaksmith and Hozer's posts from the past day or two - Any cat mining you choose to do until we determine the official fork is At Your Own Risk.

If you do choose to mine, I strongly recommend that you connect to Blaksmith's pool at geekhash, or run hozer's P2Pool code - the hashing there will speed testing and shorten the amount of time it will take to fully test the release.

If you want to connect to the test chain and see how it might affect you, back up your wallet.dat and catcoin.conf, delete the rest of the files.  Then remove the addnode entries in your catcoin.conf and replace them with the master nodes:  107.170.40.107, 198.23.248.246, and cat.geekhash.org.  The block as of this posting is 23249

Keep in mind that everyone across the community will lose some cats as we remove the forks.  But all of this will be a speed bump when we look back in mid-March. Wink
