what are the plans for future development?

I will do that later today. Thanks

Fortunately all blocks are and will be BIP30 compatible because the "enforce BIP30" option is on by default since the first RIC release. The only checkpoint that you need is the one at 4000 (see checkpoints.cpp). I'll add more for the next release but it's not mandatory that you include them.
Regarding the genesis block hash, e1ea18d0676ef9899fbc78ef428d1d26a2416d0f0441d46668d33bcb41275740 is correct
For the genesis block, difficulty should be 304, which is 0x02013000 when packed (there is no concept of "target" on RIC, only the difficulty).
The nonce for the genesis block is 0. The genesis is a special case: it's the only block that doesn't have primes. This saved me the trouble of mining it.
You can leave dnsSeeds empty and then add some nodes manually.

If you uploaded the code to github or something, I could help you with some of these details

you mean, you are trying to clone a wallet from some other source and just need to adjust parameters of RIC?

I need help on the Android Wallet App for Riecoin. Trying to Find parameters for some of the following:

        proofOfWorkLimit = Utils.decodeCompactBits(0x1d00ffffL);   //help
        dumpedPrivateKeyHeader = 128;
        addressHeader = 60;
        p2shHeader = 5;
        acceptableAddressCodes = new int[] { addressHeader, p2shHeader };
        port = 28332;
        packetMagic = 0xfcbcb2dbL;
        genesisBlock.setDifficultyTarget(0x1d00ffffL); //help
        genesisBlock.setTime(1231006505L);
        genesisBlock.setNonce(2083236893);
        id = ID_MAINNET;
        subsidyDecreaseBlockCount = 840000;
        spendableCoinbaseDepth = 100;
        String genesisHash = genesisBlock.getHashAsString();
        checkState(genesisHash.equals("e1ea18d0676ef9899fbc78ef428d1d26a2416d0f0441d46668d33bcb41275740"), //help --NEED confirmation
                genesisHash);

        // This contains (at a minimum) the blocks which are not BIP30 compliant. BIP30 changed how duplicate
        // transactions are handled. Duplicated transactions could occur in the case where a coinbase had the same
        // extraNonce and the same outputs but appeared at different heights, and greatly complicated re-org handling.
        // Having these here simplifies block connection logic considerably.
        checkpoints.put(91722, new Sha256Hash("00000000000271a2dc26e7667f8419f2e15416dc6955e5a6c6cdf3f2574dd08e")); //help- How do I know which one in RIC are non-BIP30 compliant.
        checkpoints.put(91812, new Sha256Hash("00000000000af0aed4792b1acee3d966af36cf5def14935db8de83d6f9306f2f"));

       //help  BADLY    dnsSeeds = new String[] {

I marked the parameters I need help in with //help

done

great work! I'm addicted to the widget...

Hey Fairglu, I know this isn't required, but could you set up a testnet for Riecoin? I'd like to use it for an Android wallet app I am trying to develop.

Hey, added conversion to CAD as well as other currencies. Used BitcoinAverage as the model.

Website updated with the latest news. Check us out! http://riecoin.org/

Btw Dev, can you add the google play links I posted on here on OP as well as the paper wallet/multisig generator?

Excellent news

Hope you like it! You can also display your Dev news just by creating two widgets and sending me the information like described here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annwwwcryptocoinrankcom-for-sale-for-sale-for-sale-579901

Enjoy

News from the Riecoin Blockchain Explorer:

• constellations text file being updated up to block 45000 in the next hours, with the highest constellations so far (diff 1724)
• extraction history charts have been added, you can access them from the extraction tab, f.i. here is UpCPU's
• added some visual feedback when a new block is extracted

Great news about the client update coming, is an RPC API to get the primes being included as well?
That's the "plus" that sets Riecoin apart!

You quite bunch!!

 

Fair enough. Any progress on stratum? I think what we need more than anything right now is a fast client and more pools.

I'm answering before we leave the first page
It's a fair comparison because LTC has blocks each 2.5 mins as we do, but it's not fair because LTC's PoW is not "useful".....
Anyway the answer depends on the current RIC difficulty. The first sync will definitely be much faster in RIC and in LTC, because LTC has much more blocks, and it will be like that for some time. If RIC difficulty goes up by a big amount this may change. and we would need to look at some more aggressive optimization.

I'd like to know how fast the new client will be compared to say...Litecoin? Slower or faster?

I do the best I can to get news out... I've got about a half dozen people into Riecoin and I'd donate but I'm mining on my laptop so I'm not exactly flush with coins :p

I'm doing my best to get the word out. If the university/record breaking push day happens I'll definitely help out, I'm waiting to find out exactly what my summer looks like before I commit, but I have some good contacts in western Canada at least.

To my surprise, the penalty of using the miner with ubuntu inside vmware on a windows 7 host versus the windows miner was really small

edit: I'm talking about my rminerd 3.1.1 - YMMV

I completely agree, I'd just like to add that it would be much better if we could have real ideas, comments, questions, problems or solutions instead of nonsense messages... come on, there should be a lot of people with real RIC issues to discuss, don't be shy!
