i understand and respect that, good luck with your own python block crawler
eventually when i have time i may add it to abe ,
looks like you have all the right things in there,
you and I appear to be the only two people doing any development (even part time) work on this coin....
ironic
a git pull to add support to official abe on github
...
jtobey regularly adds different algorithms....
Regrettably ...
I no longer work with Abe
Cheers
