When open source platform is released, dev does not ask "permission" from developer because is O-P-E-N; this is absurd ... it is like if Fedora developer had to get "permission" when forking Litecoin. Ridiculous.
And ...When a nickname points out the skill and deep konwledge of a developer? WTF !!
Well, I am considering very seriously forking TiPS into another coin with working mixing feature.
It is not a menace, just a feeling.
