Since devcoin is centered around development do you think their will ever be a bounty for the creation of a devcoin atm? I really want to see an altcoin atm as I think it would do something great for bitcoin in the long run

I agree there should be a devcoin ATM. Since it involves hardware it would be a big project, so how about 96 shares? Any objection or should something be changed?

+1, big thumbs up.

EDIT: Maybe split into stages, a banknote reader and laptop could work as an atm but its a long way from that to a secure production quality unit.

To qualify for 96 shares I think it should be a production quality unit (anyone could combine a banknote reader and laptop otherwise - without actually creating a finished DVC ATM).

I also think it's awesome!

Would the ATM print out paper wallets, or would it send DVC to a wallet? It's a good idea!

I think devcoin foremost needs a proper functioning windows client. Its currenlty a toy for real geeks right now. That makes it a rather exclusive coin, but it should not stay that way.

On the old devcoin thread I saw there were some issues with the windows client, but as far as I know the one I'm using is fine. I downloaded it from the Devcoin GUI Windows32 link listed here: http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=how_to_get_setup_earning_devcoins_by_writing. I tested it with the devcoin faucet. Are there any currently known issues?

where can you see if the wallet is 100% synced??

If you are using a Windows wallet you can look in the lower right corner for which block your wallet is at. We are currently at block 117675.

Thanks! just bought some devcoins and send them to my wallet

Im on that I ported it over to 0.8.5 and now testing.. qt wallet will once my merged mine proxy finds some blocks and I can somehow test the reciever file.

The qt wallet is so much better than the wxwidgets and I understand the importance so Im trying to get it up sooner rather than later.

Thanks for taking the initiative! I wish I knew how to do these things, Sad

. Sadly it's not my specialty.

Does this mean we're getting a better look for the client too?

more stable... and looks better with qt.. same as bitcoin 0.8.5 the old one used wxwidgets which wasnt that great. I will need testing help for different platforms though.

All my computers are running Windows 8. What platforms do you need help with?

..
I had asked the same thing. Apparently we're supposed to be adding categories to the bottom of articles (like [[Category:CATNAME

All of my articles are categorized, though.

http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=wiki:user:smeagol

Thanks for pointing that out, I found the bug in devtome that was causing it. It was looking for [[Category: in the text, rather than [[category: in the lower case text, so all the links that were in the format:
[[category:

were not counted. I'll rerun the script now, if it completes the run before the receiver file is made, the new run will be used, otherwise it'll be the old run. Categorization was only 5% of the earnings multiplier this round because it is experimental.

Bit of an early xmas present I was able to port over devcoin src over to bitcoin 0.8.5 with fixes (i0coin latest) and managed to statically link in libcurl so no need for the dll either(sucked doing that btw).. now I need to test and create the qt wallet! How does the test net work?

Can't help with test net, but nice one.

For general info here's a link to the Devtome.com setup page: http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=how_to_get_setup_earning_devcoins_by_writing and more general information on working for devcoins is via the devtome frontpage.

On languages, there have been previous discussions on this and for now the issues come down to people and time resources, and practically and fairly managing open-source content. If you use this link and scroll down the page to subsequent related posts it will give you bit more info as to why, and others' thoughts.

I have some articles and i would like to submit than.. How i make an account on Devtome? Do u guys have a section in Portuguese over there? Im bi-lingual and can help u guys if u need something.

You will have to submit an article sample so it can be evaluated. I'm actually not sure who is handling that at the moment, although since I am your article administrator I can go ahead and check it out if you want. Can you send me a PM?

Also, we are only dealing with English content; at this point we do not have anything for other languages and (as of the latest update) are not looking into it at this time.

Thanks!

I will send you a message Ranlo, thanks!

Not a problem,

Hi guys, I found you (finally)! It was hard to get in contact with someone : NO email on the websites, noone answering on IRC, multiple threads on bitcointalk. PfuI!

So, here we go :

I'm a software engineer and crypto currency enthusiast. I love the idea behind DVC and I hold some.

I find that there is a lack of communication: the website is honestly indecent and the wiki of devtome is not intuitive. If you want to reach a larger audience and be adopted you need a much better communication.

I want to help. New design, new tools for developers. new website, new clearer and simpler communication.

For instance: I want to get DVC to write open source software. It should be a two/three steps tutorial, instead you are forcing the developer in reading the whole intrigated 6 pages wiki homepage.

Who is coordinating this thing? We should undisclose the potential of this currency!

Hi. Yes I agree, works in progress. The more people interested and involved, the greater the growth and impact.

The developer of devcoin is unthinkingbit (also his handle here). You've probably already read it but here's a link to earn Devcoins by developing which gives some details on contacts.

I think that because it's a concept designed to support work and open source development, progress can become splintered at times as people are working on different efforts as similarly open-source projects before meshing back together over time. I'd like to think that all constructive input is welcome though, and agree with your simplicity point.
