95% is a pretty high threshold. I think there's a high probability we won't make it in time. I would prefer not to subsidize miners making invalid blocks. Perhaps we can lower the threshold, or perhaps fork a parallel p2pool system?

That's the point at which the automatic switchover would take place, but it's possible to manually trigger it too. I'll do that once BIP66 takes effect, if necessary.

When the red line croses the green line the version 3 bitcoin block requirement will be active and P2Pool nodes with a version below 14 will be submitting invalid work.

Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle... they quoted me in the article too.  I don't care if only 2 people read it, I got my 15 seconds of fame...  Cheesy

Could someone create a "spam" bitcoin transaction with a message attached requesting p2pool users to all upgrade their p2pool software?

Also, maybe we can make a list of large unupgraded pools and crowdsource an attempt to track down the owners and get them to upgrade? Here's a few:

http://60-249-19-56.hinet-ip.hinet.net:9332/static/ -- 110 TH/s -- Version 13.4 -- Taiwan
http://61-219-120-109.hinet-ip.hinet.net:9332/static/ -- 90.6 TH/s -- Version 13.4 -- Taiwan

What are you trying to build?  Just clone the git repo (or do a git pull if you've previously cloned it).  Assuming you've got the python dependencies - which you probably already do on Ubuntu - you don't need to build a thing.
Code:
cd p2pool
git pull
./run_p2pool.py RPCUSER RPCPASS

DONE : more than 50% have moved to v14.  Cheesy

I was under the impression that the most important goal was 95%, not 50%. The 50% threshold just means that people will get upgrade notices now. If we don't get to 95%, we will see reductions in mining efficiency once BIP66 takes effect.

Right, but now that >50% has switched, the remaining who haven't switched will get the alert on their nodes and see to upgrade.  The next goal is 95% version 14 utilization for the fork to finalize. Smiley

From forrestv yesterday:


That should be normal. The patch accepted from midnightmagic throttles the prints from different workers. I'm not sure why it's printing blanks, though - I'll look into it.
Thx JB, missed that one Smiley

Seems to be operating as expected.

Mine at Jonny's Pool
windpath is upgrading.

any eta mate ?


Actually I was not, just sat down to get started, something funky happened this morning, will update when I know more...

OK, back and and running on p2pool 14.

Not sure what happened this morning, took the opportunity to do a hard reboot the server, first time in over a year Wink

Thanks again Forrest!

As a side note, seeing lots of blank lines in p2pools output that were not there before:



Any ideas?

Edit: Due to the upgrade the links to the alternative front ends in my site footer will not work, I'll re-install them next week.

From forrestv yesterday:

i'm seeing this, lots of blanks, the blank space are normally where it says new work for worker ! diff xxx share diff xxx & block value but in my case only 1 worker shows up n the rest are blank. getting shares though.

i have several workers at same & other add's but they are at different worker diff's which i normally see.

That should be normal. The patch accepted from midnightmagic throttles the prints from different workers. I'm not sure why it's printing blanks, though - I'll look into it.

Perhaps, the power of mining system ... on my little miner, just 1 blank line randomly.
Perhaps, blank line = number of miners connected on the node ?

windpath is upgrading.

any eta mate ?


Actually I was not, just sat down to get started, something funky happened this morning, will update when I know more...

OK, back up and running on p2pool 14.

Not sure what happened this morning, took the opportunity to do a hard reboot the server, first time in over a year Wink

Thanks again Forrest!

As a side note, seeing lots of blank lines in p2pools output that were not there before:



Any ideas?

Edit: Due to the upgrade the links to the alternative front ends in my site footer will not work, I'll re-install them next week.
