Here's the second video, showing off more advanced features:

Topic: [BOUNTY] 185+ BTC - Open Transactions Client (for Grandmas) (Read 12745 times)
The btc towards the Holy grail bounty only makes sense to me by unifying the efforts into one area instead of multiple efforts into the same result.
You're exemplar. I'm pleased for reading your answers. And the video worked, nvm.
Will take a look at it later

You're doing most of the hard work, I would agree with that, just willing if would be reasonable donating part of this to the bounty of Holy Grail development.
No one ever claimed this Grandma bounty (other than myself.)
I originally put in 80 BTC towards this grandma bounty (back when they were like $2 per coin) but I've since paid those to the Indian developer who worked on the original Java test GUI.
As for the other 105 BTC on the grandma bounty, you will have to ask those original contributors to put that towards the Holy Grail, if they so choose. (If they pay it to me for this grandma bounty, I pledge also to put it towards the Holy Grail.)
The Holy Grail bounty is up to 81+ BTC, including some of my own, and I definitely recommend that any new contributions should also go there.
ps: can't see neither download the video from dropbox, can u reup?
Hmm I just tried it from a different browser and it still appears to work...
If you want (or if anyone else having problems) send me a PM with your email and I'll make a copy just for you.

I'm actually going to claim this "for Grandmas" bounty myself, on behalf of Monetas.

P.S. most of the code in this app is being re-used in the Android app as well as the "Holy Grail" project.

Congratz again!

Intro video -- Monetas iPhone app: http://goo.gl/8Dxak1
This app does a lot more than you see in the video, which is meant to show basic functionality.

We have produced a "Grandma Easy" client, we just haven't released it yet (coming soon.)

I suggest anyone who is interested on working on an OT-related client, look instead at the "Holy Grail" bounty:

I have the feeling that the original pledgers are not around any longer though 
... or they were stupid enough to send funds to OP
The other bounty does seem much better organized. Is there anyone currently working on this bounty who would object to pledges here being transferred to ft's "holy grail" bounty?
This is what should properly happen ... I have the feeling that the original pledgers are not around any longer though

Obsi has been inactive for months here. Anyone knows about this?
There are some people working hard with this wonderfull project atm.
Peaple interested on contribute please follow here from now on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=225954.80
It's OT + bitmessage and seem wonderfull, future is coming.

I have the technical ability and desire to pursue this project provided the requirements can be defined:
1) I need a digital cash system with wallet and was already building one.
2) I already fully understand the entire design behind OT (having implemented a 'clone' just for fun)
3) I need a digital cash system for my P2P network designs.
So my 'proposed' easy to use system would focus on maintaining a wallet with digital cash tokens and allowing them to be spent. It would also allow the deposit/withdraw of Bitcoin into such an account.
I would implement it with Qt and C++ because they provide a better user experience and more native feel without a lot of the hassels of dealing with the JRE.
If I were to pursue this, I would need the following promises from those who are backing this bounty:
1) All competitors must develop "open source" on github so I can tell where they are. (No surprises winning the bounty after I have done 99%)
2) How will the bounty be divided if there are multiple good contestants?
3) What are the minimum subset of features required to win the bounty?
4) Who will judge the usability and by what objective criteria?
I will have to look into how DevCoins works as I would be working on this in excess of 20 hrs / week.

FWIW my tiny 3 BTC are still pledged here.
I'm just asking because..
Yes sir, bounty still open on Rugatu
http://www.rugatu.com/questions/3691/open-transactions-client-for-grandmas
How can you know if Obsi is still willing to pledge 100 BTC at todays exchange rate?
Or was this just some Rugatu promotion?
Is anyone working on this at the moment? Is the bounty still open?

This was first posted here on Bitcointalk but we saw the chance to promote this project on Rugatu and take advantage of the influx of new users that find out about Bitcoin through it. We pledged a small amount at first to incentive any developers research it, and hoped more people would pledge in the future for having it completed.
The bounty on Rugatu is still active and all funds are kept in escrow, but we don't know for sure if the bounty is still going here on the forum. Guess Obsi should comment on this again.
If someone develop something like this he doesn't really need bounty. Because BTC price is going to go really high, and nothing is better than that 
I'll throw down a fair bit of BTC (hundreds of dollars worth) for this. I had started working on a web interface months ago, but I'm not even a remotely good programmer. I just think OT has huge potential!

Someone donated money rather than pledged it? Wow, no wonder he disappeared.
