I could have sworn he posted on twitter that he was going to be out of town for a little while, that he wouldn't be available for a bit... I looked but couldn't find that post. Maybe I mixed that up in my head with another dev... Anyways I wouldn't freak out if the guy goes missing for a couple days.. maybe he has personal emergencies that had to be attended to.. Shit, if I could go missing for a couple days, I would gladly do so
I'm glad to report that mintpal's FLT wallet is functioning again... Still nothing from bter. I've resumed trading FLTs and hope to accumulate some more!
If you want to read about a really f**ked situation, check out SilkCoin (another coin I'm waiting on deposits for at mintpal).. The one guy readily admits that his programmers ditched him and the situation looks really grim (at least it did yesterday.. I'm behind on my reading). I don't know that I'll ever receive my SC deposit. I'm still holding AsiaCoins and WhiteCoins, too. Both of those were some pretty screwed up situations where the community came together to revive the coins.
I wish I had the technical expertise to be of help in keeping FLT afloat, but I don't. But if you guys can keep it flowing, I'll continue mining, trading, accumulating, and spending fluttercoins!
