Hey, sorry for the silence, but I'm still around!! Here's the latest info on the pool, straight from the guy working on it
Switching is working. Profit is pulling data from Polo for all configured coins - just need to plumb in the current difficulty and rewards and then it's off to the races.
I plan to hold long term - this has the potential to drive up demand for DIEM the way that blackcoinpool has.
I just registered the domain carpediempool.com as well.

Sounds like we are getting really close!! Remember, the advantage DIEM will have price-wise to BC is that we have
0 new coins coming in. There is no PoS to keep driving prices back down
