I retrieved my private key from blockchain.info to set up a sell offer but masterchain.info tells me that it is invalid. What may the problem be? Or more to the point what am I doing wrong? 
add this to reddit so hopefully you get a few more testers

Grazcoin, would it not be an idea to hide the characters (much like when one logs into their internet banking) when someone is entering their private key, in case somebody is watching?
Subbed, cant wait to see where this goes.

I just tried to create a new sell offer using address 19i7op4JBQWnACZwrHiRX32xpzAHz81uKn
When clicking on "verify" I get this error "no pubkey on blockchain". I'm not exactly sure what this means, does masterchain.info not know about this address yet?

It means that you have not signed yet with this address inside the blockchain (did not spend anything yet).
In order to create a new bitcoin transaction, the public key is required. If it is cannot be retrieved from the blockchain, you have to supply it.
An easy way to get the public key, is to visit http://brainwallet.org/ and give your private key. Then the public key appears.
Otherwise,

From main mastercoin thread:
Westphalian, Marv has been putting together the test plan for DEx at https://github.com/marv-engine/QA/blob/master/MastercoinDistributedExchangeTestPlan.md
Regarding bug reports, Grazcoin may have a preferred location, but you can ask the devs for their preference, and to receive TMSC.
Still finalizing the formal version of the above.
Grazcoin, this is looking exceptional!
Re: quote from grazcoin above (masterchain.info wallet/DEx)
It looks like you need to create a new wallet first and then search for your mastercoin/bitcoin address.
Once you find the address you can add it to the newly created wallet.
Are there any official instructions for beta-testers for the wallet and DEx, like where to acquire test mastercoins and where to report bugs?

No need to create a new wallet. It gets created automatically if it is not there already, e.g.the first time you click "add to wallet" on some address.
No official instructions as the code is still hot directly from the oven. Also being now in the revolutionary & chaotic phase of the development, things may change very fast. Whenever a beta stage comes, I will tag it as beta.
Testing - you are more than welcome. Just follow the tutorial and experiment.
General testing and testcoins - that's not me.

Tutorial for masterchain.info's cool Hybrid web wallet (TM) that does bitcoin/mastercoin sending as well as Distributed Exchange operations is available on:

What it CAN do:
What it CANNOT (yet) do:
Few technical details:
Testing:
Not enough testing has been done. There are still sharp edges, and some hick-ups.
Example are available in the tutorial.
There is still enough work to get to consensus on DEx.

Tutorial for masterchain.info's cool Hybrid web wallet (TM) that does bitcoin/mastercoin sending as well as Distributed Exchange operations is available on:
https://masterchain.info/downloads/masterchain_tutorial.pdf
What it CAN do:
- Show balances of MSC/TMSC/BTC for each of your addresses (just add them to the wallet)
- Initiate a send/sell of each of the funds on the wallet
- Suggest wallet addresses when clicking ACCEPT on an sell offer
- Generate a correct PAY transaction after the offer got accepted
What it CANNOT (yet) do:
- Sync wallet with server is not yet implemented. It means that the wallet is kept only locally in your browser. To re-create it, add the addresses to a new wallet
Few technical details:
- All view pages are rendered locally on your browser using json data from the server (or from your filesystem). The json files are static (so no problem for 1M users together, since users bring their own CPUs)
- Wallet is kept in browser storage. No private information is stored. A secure mechanism to keep the wallet data online will be later introduced
- Wallet operations are done using a POST request from the server to:
- /wallet/validateaddr/
- /wallet/send/
- /wallet/sell/
- /wallet/accept/
- At this point, the tx gets the bitcion network using pushtx of blockchain.info (will be later changed)
Testing:
Not enough testing has been done. There are still sharp edges, and some hick-ups.

Is mastercoin an answer to colored coins?
I have just implemented the protocol and prepared a set of tools.Is mastercoin an answer to colored coins?
If you want more infomation about mastercoin, you should check the main mastercoin thread at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mastercoin-new-protocol-layer-starting-from-the-exodus-address-265488
I see is as an alternative to colored coins which never really took off.
As for the package mastercoin-tools - you can see it working on http://masterchain.info or check the README and code at https://github.com/grazcoin/mastercoin-tools

It was hard work, but I think you can see that.
It is important to note that for "simple send", the "basic" variant is supported as well as "multisig simple" (see MIP1 https://github.com/grazcoin/mastercoin-tools#mastercoin-improvement-proposal-mip1. The previous multisig (with 4 outputs) is not yet implemented. It means currently a fork in parsing. I would like to re-open the discussion on the "multisig simple" in another thread.

It was hard work, but I think you can see that.
- Fully distributed architecture - no need for database or webserver.
- You can use the site offline and update it locally on request.
- Sync to bitcoin network is done using sx which connects to some public obelisk bitcoin node.
- Sending a transaction directly using Send supports offline wallets.
- There is an API section and a Download section for snapshot of parsed data

I'm trying to understand your suggestion about a package with a live update. Are you suggesting that MasterCoin clients should decouple from the block chain completely and rely on a vetted record of transactions? If so, that would seem to lose our decentralization. If not, what are you suggesting?
Thanks!
repearting the answer in https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3124663
The live update is a feature of the command sx-monitor (https://github.com/grazcoin/sx) which listens to the bitcoin network on specific address (1EXoDus address in our case), and in real time outputs new tx. The code will parse them on-the-fly and show the mastercoin tx.
A different mechanism will go over the output (optionally also on-the-fly) and decide if the tx is valid or not according to the mastercoin balance of the address (invalid tx if there are not enough funds).

Package of mastercoin related tools.
available on https://github.com/grazcoin/mastercoin-tools
The intention is to help finalizing the mastercoins spec, and enable easy further coding.
It is based on https://github.com/spesmilo/sx with minor fixes on https://github.com/grazcoin/sx
For finalizing the spec, a list of address and mastercoins was generated.
To get all mastercoins sells during exodus bootstrap in csv format:
To get total amount of mastercoins for each address: python bootstrap_msc_per_address.py > outputs/msc_per_address.csv
To get the whole bootstrap story (for fun and debug), check:
The outputs of those scripts are available under https://github.com/grazcoin/mastercoin-tools/tree/master/outputs
Once this list is agreed on the community, it would be possible to sign it with 1EXoDus address and take it as appendix for the spec (best would be as part of the github repository of the ascii spec). Also future protocol stack implementations could use it.
Aim of this package:
Next steps:
enjoy!

Aim of this package:
- Live update - direct interaction with the bitcoin network (using sx monitor).
- Run without a database.
- Be an alternative code base.
Next steps:
- Parse mastercoin tx for all tx coming from sx-monitor tool listening on 1EXoDus address creating a mastercoin tx log (dropping the syntax invalid tx).
- Accounting validator - checks that enough funds are available for each tx. Insufficient funds would mean invalid tx.
