Ok guys, I hope we've had some fun and perhaps maybe some time to think about my previously mentioned pseudo-offer. I'm going to take this post to lay my cards out on the table.
If there is still interest in this coin I would like to propose that I take control over development of the core client. As previously stated I am not a professional programmer, I am a Unix/Linux systems administrator by trade and do a little bit of scripting and coding as a result of my line of work. I do know a couple of people that can assist with high level code issues and I'm happy to keep the code base hosted through github moving forward.
To begin I do not foresee any immediate change in direction other than possible updating the source to merge in appropriate upstream changes. In a perfect world we could have perhaps done away with the original developers pre-mine block but as that has already been distributed some, I don't think it would be fair to those whom have earned their rewards to have them vanish as a result of the original developers untimely departure.
I would like to see this coin flourish and to do so we will indeed need to evolve and implement new features. As previously stated, I believe there is more than enough innovation taking place within the Crypto community which we can incorporate into the OPEC Coin codebase as these technologies advance and prove themselves within their current ecosystems.
I will not hide behind any curtains, I will disclose my name and I will be upfront and honest. I will involve our community and if and when changes are made it will be up to a community vote on how and when those changes are implemented. Suggestions and ideas are all welcome.
I can't promise to always be available. I have a wife, two daughters and work life to balance but ANY free time I do have will be put towards turning this Coin and community into a well oiled machine. If you, the investors would like to have me, I'll get stuck in. I'll leave it up to you all to have your say.
Who am I ?
