Depends on what you like to do and how tolerant you are of cold. Mid July is the best time weather wise but also the time everybody are on vacation and you are 10 times more likely to meet other tourists than Icelanders.

my personal favorite time to travel in Iceland is august to October but that is off course because of hunting related matters.

Maby write what you like to do and we can recommend a time and a place  

These vikings will answers better - but it seem that aug-sept is a good time... for fishing.  And for dying burned by angry volcano too.

sound like a good plan for this summer!

when's the best time to visit Iceland?

Nice !

I would suggest you present your new pool on our different FB pages too.

Copenhagen is my favorite city on earth. I know some super nice Danes and of course I want to be "distorted" this year
A trip to Reykjavík seams like a natural follow up...

The pool has been added to the OP.

Damn, flights from Kopenhagen are AUR 11625. That's still a bit expensive... maybe next year when the Auroracoin economy is rolling

can someone take minutes and publish them?

What is the main goal of this meeting ?

We will be having an open Auroracoin meeting on Sunday at 11 o'clock in Engjateigur 3, 3rd floor (Reykjavik). Anyone interested can join us for a cup of coffee and chat about the project.

"Sleeping giant". I like that. I think it's accurate, too. Also what you say about luck.

Hi Harry.

I'm a long-time fan of auroracoin.. since the early days.

Baldur Odinson, the inventor of auroracoin has left the project alone. He pretty much disappeared quite early on.

I am very happy that this dedicated group of people (in large part people from Iceland, I think. I'm not part of it myself, but I recently started discussing a bit more with them and trying to help a little bit with the project) took over the project. They really have their heads and hearts in the right places. Their goal is not pump&dump or "be the next bitcoin", they just carry on the original idea of Auroracoin: make a currency for a small, segregated group of cool people that suffer above average from the financial system (have been fucked by bankers, essentially).

Will it work to airdrop coins on them and hope (help) they will adopt crypto? A very interesting question. Auroracoin is the experiment (ongoing) to find this. If it doesn't work in Iceland, why would it work for the world?

Baldur Odinson gave 1 Million AUR of the premine to the Auroracoin Foundation, which was made by this group. And he appeared one more time (we thank him for that) to burn the rest of the premine that wasn't airdropped. The 3 stages of the airdrop went through, almost as planned (amounts were adjusted upward to get out more coins). There might have been some fraud with the collection system, but I think every citizen had his chance to collect. So we can say yes: this coin is premined, but the premine went ~85% to the population of Iceland and 15% to the Auroracoin foundation whose goal it is to further the adoption of auroracoin in Iceland.

So I myself trust the new team more than I had trusted Baldur, the original creator. They are not anonymous and largely transparent in their actions. They also did many things already and they're doing a phantastic job!

Why would you keep AUR in a wallet. It's a trading coin! Enjoy the pump from the AUR team and sell and buy back those 3.6k coins at a lower price in a months time.

AUR is one of my favorite coins.
I look at it as a sleeping giant, with the dedicated work we see as the determining factor that can make it's success happen.
I don't think luck is needed! LOL 

Very few coins revivals prove successful.  I do like the idea of country focused coins. Good luck with this one!

Thanks - I am not from Iceland too.  I am from Canada (Quebec - french speaking part of Canada). 

Thanks for quick answer - all those informations sounds good to me. I think Aurora is part of history cryptoworld, nice to see this project still alive and looks like have a feature. I am not Icelander, but wish all of you well.

Good evening Harry,

You seems ready for the fork !  This will be a very solid upgrade and an important step toward auroracoin main goal, that is icelandic adoption.  The team behind the coin is the same for a long time - after they did a pacific takeover, with the assisting of Baldur Odinson, the founding dev. 

For several months (almost 2 years), this group of dedicated coders and entrepreneurs worked countless hour to develop further this project, and prepare somewhat a new birth.  New code, new websites (still working on it), new AUR/ISK icelandic exchange, social media channel developement, and some things to come that I can't discuss until it's 100% confirmed, all this supported by the Aurarad Foundation, a legal entity created by Pétur Arnasson and few others... Wow that was a long sentence.  So, yes, this is a new team, a very active team.

Wallet updated, old coins still there etc., so I am ready for a fork as I believe.
Just one question - are we have some new dev. team here or supporters ( who is making those updates )? Wonder is it still same people as this is quite old coin.
