So, I'm in the process of writing on Stratum client, and I'm getting some odd results from p2pool.

In the p2pool log, I'm seeing a ton of these:

2014-04-14 21:10:16.531268 Worker 12uCQa1rEBxQutWUkXE2AA6LnhfrAPJpgF submitted share with hash > target:
2014-04-14 21:10:16.531393     Hash:   93b4405c1ef4a1104a9a26bf30cbce5034847d7a6d5cb6babc8792326ef6b0ce
2014-04-14 21:10:16.531472     Target: ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

I've tried reading through p2pool's source, but Python isn't my thing and the code doesn't appear well structured IMHO. So, it was hard for me to tell if "target" referred to:

a) A Bitcoin block target - unlikely
b) A p2pool share - my first thought
or
c) A difficulty 1 (or x) share - my fear

My first guess was B, as my transactions with P2Pool have looked like this:

{"params":["12uCQa1rEBxQutWUkXE2AA6LnhfrAPJpgF","142929675283333299491430029355155482840","39000000","534c9506","d9d444d8"],"id":43,"method":"mining.submit"}

And P2Pool's response:

Quote
{"id":43,"error":null,"result":true}

So, it appears to be giving me a thumbs up, and my miner is happily mining away. Unfortunately if I visit http://localhost:9332 in my browser, it reports my local rate as 0. Thusly why I'm starting to fear C  Sad

Any thoughts? I hope I made sense of that all.
