Thanks so much for getting the payout system working again. That was a disconcerting first 2 weeks for me on Eligius.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but except for a few hicups of a few hours here and there, payout was working well most of the time? There was a BIG problem a few months back, but it has been quite some time ago, and it was blocked for a week or so. Since then, nothing that blocked payout for more than 2 days!
On donations, WK has the option of establishing a pool fee if needed. Would anyone complain ?
He has repetitedly stated he does not want to do that. I'm not quite sure why he cares son much about that, but he really wants that there exists at least one free public-usable bitcoin mining pool of minimally good quality.
