Does this new update do anything for the subsidy? I'm curious if there was any planned cuts to the subsidy and/or max hardcap. Seems like a lot of over diluted coins are doing that now which is a great idea since it's identical to a stock BuyBack only it doesn't cost anything dollar-wise.

As far as I know nothing has been changed to the current block reward table/schedule.
No. We are not changing anything yet. We had to stop that project short. Even thought it almost was a split between "for yes" and "for no" we started seeing too much arguments and we felt people were starting to distance away from the frustration at the others voting for the opposite. At the same time this would have been something that has never been done before (as far as i know) and it would be a serious code effort.
Since our main focus is to get the x11 algo out of our way first , then considering all the time , effort and resources needed for it and seeing our community up in heated arguments , the team decided to put this project on hold for a later day, or perhaps never. its not something we should keep up for discussion at this moments.
Even though we did not change any parameters ,forking into x11 algo should bring back a lot of miners that we lost due to the hot summer. Also we could be the new hot coin that all the X11,13,14,15,etc algo miners might start mining. This will help our coin's distribution a lot. since it will be harder to mine karma.
There is also the hopes that we will attract all the chinese miners. they love x11 algo due to the lower energy spent to mine it. Hope those miners will help Karma spread around Asia's continent.
