will a listing of nodes be provided at launch?
there are three seed nodes set into the main net package, and ill try to ensure that user-supplied nodes are updated as soon as possible

how to install and configure (testnet) soil - stepwise manual
Here is my fabulous stepwise manual how to install the testnetsoil node, with a few tricks and shortcuts to make my life easier. Shorter manuals are possible, of course - but I developed that one, because I wanted to understand each and every step, and make my system easy to use. And -yet unsolved(*)- as secure as possible, by locking down the firewall. Perhaps this helps anyone tonight.
The firewall iptables (*) I have understood better by now, so I might create a solution for that in the next days. If you know your iptables, feel free to try. My goal was to INPUT & OUTPUT drop ALL, apart from the soil traffic (and ssh of course) ... to create a hyper-secure node.
Anyways, these are the steps that I took to get the testnet node running, attached, DAG generated, and CPU mining enabled:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469498 init
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469524 firewall?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469824 delete chain, start anew
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469900 DAG generation
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469934 ready
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12469987 what is DAG
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12470034 hashrate
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12476297 some more iptables experiments
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12476773 iptables -P OUTPUT DROP (unfinished)

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12476984 idea how to OUTPUT DROP
If anyone wants to make a shorter manual from that - yes please.
My main net address is: 0x8da4fc05ca343e6a41646194e91931d9f413a40c - remember that giving can make you happy :-)
Good luck to everyone for the launch!
EDIT: shorter/newer manuals (will put more here once they are posted)

Possible to use zippyshare.com for packages ?

edit from previous post.. the total testnet bounties will be 45,103.609735 SOIL amongst 24 testnet contributors, according to their testnet wallet balances, at 15% capped to 5000SOIL and 3000 to the node hosters. we'll attribute my error to a pre-launch day brain fart. or a lack of caffeine. thank you for your understanding. 4 hours to launch! we'll have the main net wallet/mining package download up before launch, if anyone would like a reminder email, let me know....

as we prepare for launch tomorrow, i just want to take a few minutes and thank everyone thats helped us get to this point so far. when we release the main net package tomorrow before launch, new wallet addresses will be generated, thus im going to need those with incoming testnet bounties to PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write me as soon as you are set up with your new SOIL wallet address. i want to be able to ensure that those bounties are paid out as quickly as possible, and be able to update the public ledger for the community reserve with those debits. ill be contacting everyone personally tomorrow after launch if i dont hear from them and get their updated wallet address, just to remind them. if i miss you, somehow... tomorrow WILL be a crazy busy day... please dont hesitate to let me know and ill get right on it.
we've also been working with the admin from c-cex and should have SOIL up on the exchange tomorrow within a few hours of launch, so therell be at LEAST one confirmed exchange for you to trade your testnet bounties on. we will also have our basic block explorer ready tomorrow as well, and ill post that link for everyone as soon as we launch.
id updated the information regarding the reserve on the genesis block on our website at soilcoin.xyz but since we've been busy as anything last few days preparing for the launch, much of that hasnt been updated on the OP. the community reserve will be referrenced in a public ledger that i will update here on bitcointalk twice a week (at least) and immediately upon any debit or credit on the website , under the "community" tab.
we are preparing a 800,000 SOIL community reserve. of that, a little over 160,000 SOIL will be paid out immediately to testnet contributors. this will help to bring volume and liquidity to the market for SOIL, bringing it into the hands of many people who are as of yet unaware of this project and the wonderful community supporting it. we have an official faucet prepared, and will be keeping that topped up from the community reserve when needed. the core development teams reserves is set at 200,000 SOIL which is nearly matched immediately upon launch by the testnet bounties. both myself and soil will have our wallet addresses publicly available on the website and you will be able to check our balances for veracity on our claims to be holding our reserves simply thru gsoil with the command:
web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance("insert wallet address here"), "soil")
we are very much dedicated to a transparent operation, and there will be nothing hidden. i will not release the names of the individual wallet holders for the testnet bounties on the community page... cryptocurrency is something that focuses on pseudo-anonymity and i respect that. the individual wallet holder will know their address and thats enough transparency regarding those debits from the community reserve. as for the development team, that anonymous protection is not needed. for the record, my name is abvhiael crowley, you can google me if youd like, im the only person on the planet with the name "abvhiael" (thanks mom..) and you can find me on facebook (abvhiael and-janet crowley) as well. just to put a public face to the name....
the vast bulk of the reserve will be set to bounties and further development, and thats where you, the community, will be desperately needed. we need ideas to what sorts of changes will be useful for the evolution of the system. we will move towards a one SOIL/one vote apparatus when we reach a proper threshold that ensures the distribution of SOIL has reached as many possible souls as possible. my target for this implementation is after we have minted 2million SOIL.
our first order of business after launch will be getting SOIL accepted as a mode of payment at merchants that conform to our target industry, and we've made some inroads towards that already, and will be concentrating the tech development after launch towards that goal. beyond that, it will be setting up DApps on the blockchain and making SOIL not only a currency but a stable and relevant network as well. these projects WILL take time. i envision a good year of ridiculously hard work to get this project halfway to where id like to see it go. i hope we will have each and every one of you along for the whole ride, and i hope that you make ridiculous amounts of money from mining and trading SOIL as well.

Yes. It's easier to just add the NetworkId and the genesis tomorrow.file protocol.go, line 45

When you will provide the NetworkId for main net?

There's absolutely no reason anyone needs to mine this on a pool, it's just as easy to mine solo and is better for the network and decentralization.
I know this post won't affect most miners decisions, but at least take it into consideration. ANYONE with a single video card should be able to mine this solo and hit blocks regularly.

Will Suprnova be ready? Curently blank page.
Suprnova normally open up his pool a day or so after launch.
-tb-
Pool is ready for pre-reg, however I'll be late with the launch, so go solo first ! I'll need approx an hour to have everything up and running after launch (if everything goes well).

24 HOURS TO GO! i still have eleventy seven hundred things to do before we launch!! (#gray hairs) we will be posting the main net package here, and on our twitter/facebook/reddit pages before launch. many MANY ove contributed to the beginning of this grand experiment. its going to be a long long crazy ride together. theres so very much to do after we launch, and we will be working behind the scenes every day to improve the SOIL platform and bring in new features, to bring in relevant DApps and make SOIL a viable currency. we couldnt have gotten here without you guys. what a wonderful community. (even you grumpy negative nellies)

sent you PM. Sorry for the delay ^^.
no worries whatsoever. added your testnet wallets to the list for bounty payout tomorrow.

our website has been updated, you can find the new SOILcoin webstie at soilcoin.xyz
the links on the website set are still for the testnet packages. the mainnet packages are completed, and we will set out the links to them here on the forum before the launch with as many online file hosting services as possible to make your download quick and painless. we will update the links on the website immediately upon launch as well.
we have a VERY basic block explorer ready, presently it is connected to the test net and is being tested.
we will have a dedicated mining pool with a few surprises for the folks with regular hashrate mining capabilities, we're just working out the implementations right now.
the faucet is ready, and will be pointed towards the mainnet community reserve upon launch.
we are still awaiting official confirmation from the exchanges, and any help (voting on cryptsy or c-cex) would be appreciated. let the exchanges know YOU want SOIL listed with them. i can only write so many letters to them.
im presently researching mining pools to approach, and will only settle on long-established and well respected mining pools. too many fly-by-night operations exist, up for a few days with promises to remit mined funds and then disappearing and we wont use them, or the operators of such that pop up intermittently everywhere. bad pool owners exist with every coin (oneether disappeared recently, after no payouts over eight days and now the site is down, taking everyones mined coins with them...) and we want to put SOIL up in as many places as possible to ensure a well distributed global hashrate, but we will insist on QUALITY pools above all else.
see you all on saturday!!!
