2. Create new github source that can be updated to be ad up-to-date as possible
3. Release new wallets.

Well as the coin dev.. I'm still around, and have been updating the code with all necessary patches, security or otherwise.. Of course if you guys have some new contributions would always love to have it...

Basically the economy behind the currency failed. You can not fix an economy with software updates, man. Updating wallets and bitcointalk threads wont result in a flow of GPUs to buy with GPUcoins. If you are not going to revive the store (by either investing your own money, IPO or liquid magic) you might aswell just leave this coin to die and focus your efforts somewhere where you can make a difference.

GPUCoin is in a weird situation, not like other coins.. precisely why it interested many of us.. for these other coins, it's 100% about promotion, and generally some statement about using the coin for something or other...

GPUC was something that actually had a business model associated with it.  It's too bad that part of it failed.

I wouldn't count the front-end out though.. hendr1x still around i think..

The bigger problem is that there's no strategy or new business plan.. there's no angle right now for this coin.

So agree I'm not sure how the revive guys can do much with it...
Don't forget to mention that the original owner of the coin must still have some 100's of millions (+ those he got from the GPU sells).
GPUC is just a big time bomb if it gets revived...
I mean you want to work against other scam coins... you should state that clearly before anyone else put some effort in it.
