Hi guys..

Important issue: we're going to have to hardfork soon regardless it seems.

1) OpenSSL issue has to be patched
2) KGW timewarp exploit has to be patched (requires hard fork)


RFC #1)

  I can patch this as early as tomorrow, however we need to pick a fork block.  I'm going to propose +2 weeks

  Puts us at block 65563 (roughly 2 weeks from now)...

  The reason for the proposed long lead time.. is it's more important to protect us against a potentially bad fork (ppl who didn't get the new client) rather than really get hit by a KGW timewarp attack.


RFC #2)

  GPUCoin rewards reduction.

  Given that we are going to need to hard fork at block X anyhow.. we can choose to reduce GPUCoin reward.
  
  Throwing this out there, maybe we should move UP the coin halving.  so going to 10k soon.



Will take comments for 1 day before making changes and releasing new clients.
