Hi CartmanSPC,

first of all thanks for all the work you put in organizing this information about P2Pool. Reading it put me up with most of the knowledge I have of configuring new P2Pools for altcoins.
I guess you read the disappointing answer of deeppurple72 on Github (if not go and check it https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/issues/157#issuecomment-35691652).

If you don't mind I'd like to help/contribute to the work you have started, and join forces to figure out how to make as many interesting cryptos as possible with p2pool.
And then redistribute the code + the documentation for the good of the community as a whole.

If you think it's too much work or you are not interested I will understand. But then I'll try to carry on on my own and of course give you all the credit you deserve!
Ciao!



Like I said, I will share with the community soon.
2nd of all, your code was not rewritten, and not being "sold"
3rd because the new coins have low diff, 0 nodes/ 0 peers is actually an advantage
4th I would like to run the new pools for several months and then share with the
community the knowledge.... I am not attempting to "sell" some custom
modification of p2pool software, so let me make that perfectly clear!

There is a forum on bitcointalk.org about "HOW TO MAKE ALT-COINS WORK WITH P2POOL"
that has alot of good information. I just happened to discover on my own lots of additional information. When I said "bounty", it referred to information, and NOT p2pool software.

Also, you will notice that I did NOT post any wallet addresses, as I did not seriously
expect anyone to actually do that.

Let me run some pools for a few months so I can make a little something first,
then I will glady clue you people in....

Also, you guys were very hard on me when I requested some kind of way to penalize
those cloud-miners, pools running into pools, "excessive hashrates"
calling my request "ludicrous" and such....

and then you wonder why I suddenly don't feel so friendly?

Hmmmm........
