Graham is working on including some of the upstream PIVX code into current master code base to fix some of the issues that we ran into with creating the Windows binaries. He'll then merge that and the other branch for our working codebase. We'll run through and clean it up and begin testing it on the network. Once that is complete and we're satisfied with the results we'll start prepping for launch on cryptopia.
Sorry guys, but at this point, I'd rather you release NOW, even if it is not well-rounded.
As it stands, from a technological standpoint, it will be "just" a PIVX clone, so it should be possible to launch with a couple of warts and then merge upstream changes in a dot-release. PIVX didn't hard-fork, so HLM won't have to either. I've said farewell to the idea that HLM will bring something interesting to the table from a a technological point of view, so the focus must be on the business side.
I cannot see the construction industry adopting crypto, it being very conservative and digitally challenged, but this is what @coins101 believed, so I hope he is still pushing for business adoption, proof-of-concepts, partnerships and what have you. For that, we NEED something that works, and soon. You cannot promise creating a next-gen system and then not deliver for months. Unfortunately, that makes me doubt there's anything going on the business development side.
Do you have a running system with the tokenomics variables changed and validated from PIVX? If yes, just release it, everything else can come later. Taking time to perfect something instead of releasing is the wrong way in software.
