It's not enough to have a couple of pools mine our transactions. We need to keep the block time as close to ten minutes as possible.
Then contact more than a couple of pools. This statement sounds like you wish to force miners to include your transactions; surely you didn't mean it that way?
If you can provide a patch that identifies transactional-only Counterparty OP_RETURN transactions uniquely from 80-byte abuse, I will discuss whitelisting it on Eligius with wizkid057.
This is with the understanding that Counterparty will seek to migrate to a more acceptable solution long-term.

This is helpful and not the first time Eligius mining pool has offered to help Counterparty. Remember the burn period?

Nice to see us exploring another opportunity to work together with Eligius, once again.

This is very helpful progress and looks like it can combine with some of the other proposals put forward. I dare say the solutions presented are even working out faster than a BIP proposal review!
