We will be looking forward to using your pool server. Hopefully it is open source so that we can easily add jh00's implementation of XPT (x.pushthrough) protocol and a tamper resistant developer's fee feature to it.
Of course it'll be open source, the idea is to have as many pools open as possible in order to bring decentralization and more people interested in RIC.
This should also set us appart from XPM which, as far as I know, doesn't have an open source pool implementation.
The protocol I'm trying is stratum, only some field lengths are modified (time, nonce). I already updated the cpuminer for this (not officially released because I couldn't test it yet- ie it probably doesn't work). I you -or anyone- could later add support for XPT it would be cool.
Excellent! We'll be operating a geographically redundant pool that should be very resistant to DDOS attacks, etc.
