Hello everybody,
We have good and bad news. The bad news first of course. We are discontinuing the use of our main DNS seed node, due to lack of funds. For that reason we are staying with the fallback DNS seed node. Not only that, the consequence is that all releases from 0.8.5.0 and older will loose the ability to sync with the network. We forecast that all nodes using old Devcoin releases will break 5 days from now, so
the deadline to fix your node(s) is May 21st!Soooo, we have a new release (yeah, a FULL realease) ready! Please find the detailed instructions to cook your new wallet here:
https://steemit.com/busy/@cpol/how-to-compile-your-very-own-devcoin-wallet-in-ubuntu-18-04The above applies to everybody running a devcoin node, miners included.
You are warned.Go go Devcoin!

Are you able to offer windows and mac binaries?

No. Months ago I asked the person suppossedly on charge of Windows and MAC binaries to help, but I got no answer, so I removed the ongoing shares for that position. Rather now I prefer to have tutorials similar to @cpol's, so that people can cook their own wallets in Windows and MAC.

That works for linux as generally u can do everything u need through the terminal. Have you ever built a cryptowallet on windows?? it really is not a simple process and similar on mac.
http://web.archive.org/web/20130821030414/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149479.0Really do need to offer all the platform binaries otherwise it is restricting the entry level to just get a wallet and people will not bother or be turned away from dvc, or worse yet someone who has dvc can no longer access if old versions of dvc are not going to work / sync
I used to make builds for windows and mac as part of the linux build as you can cross compile but it has been many years since I did this but details are here
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.mdI would STRONGLY recommend that these binaries are released as well otherwise it will have a negative impact on the dvc network.
