-b9 has been reduced to 7% dev fee. 6.5% me, 0.5% jh00. Windows build is 6% me, 0.5% jh00, 0.5% Clintar.

Can I ask why the extra 0.5% to jh00? jh00 already makes his coins from pool fees, and could adjust those if he wanted to take a bigger slice.

I know - but I built entirely on his codebase from xptMiner. I've only changed one file in there - riecoinMiner.cpp. All of the rest, from the threading and #cpu detection to the xpt protocol, is his. I think it's right to have part of the dev fee go to jh00-the-developer, and for the pool fees to go to jh00-the-pool-creator/maintainer.

(I realize they're the same person and that jh00 benefits twice, but the way I mentally worked through this decision was to ask what I'd do if I'd based my code on someone else's miner -- I'd give part of the dev fee to them, too, so I figured it shouldn't be any different simply because jh00 also maintains the pool.)

This is the same reason the dev fee is split a little more for the Windows version -- Clintar did the patching and the makefile in his version for getting it to compile under the mingw framework, and helped me out getting my cross compilation environment working.

Yes... but jh00 open-sourced his code exactly so others could improve upon it?

...and Clintar deserves more for compiling with mingw... that is about as much fun as gouging out your own eyeballs with a rusty spoon Wink
