Dev said he had opencl experience! and the testnet ran for months! and he didn't write a gpu miner just for fair ? wowowowow~~~~
It was actually talked about to write one for the purpose of making it fair, or at least diffusing the situation, as I'm not completely sure it is unfair for people to write better software. Anyways, it's lot of work and writing hash codes is about the completely most uninteresting thing I could be doing with my time. It is not so hard to write the hashes, but debugging it is a nightmare. So it didn't get done, busy busy with the whole other 40k lines of code that need to work correctly and what not. Keep in mind I got paid to develop the coin, not to try and take all the coins. Bitfreak has some kind of vision here I can only pretend to understand, for the most part it seems to involve trying to appease all parties.
