Topic: [DVC]DevCoin - Official Thread - Moderated - page 324. (Read 1058949 times)

I suggest 24 shares for any open source toy. Also, if people suggest a particular toy that they want, and there are no objections, then a 48 share bounty could be offered. 48 shares is enough to get a simple toy, but not enough for a complicated toy. Any objections, or should something be changed?

The generation of Devcoins is unlimited

I found no information about what the final mined amount of Devcoins will be? Is there a final limit?

If your plugins are open source, you should get devcoins. To get them you must make a project page and/or a discussion thread where you discuss your accomplishments. On the share list:
https://raw.github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/master/bitcoinshare.html

everyone has a link to their project, and/or discussion thread.


I wrote that a long time ago, when the thread had few posts. Because this thread is now busy, in future people should only contact Metazilla; I'll remove the part about posting in the devcoin thread. Since that is what the page said, it's no problem that you posted here, and indeed if you want to talk about devcoin, post here again.

Don't worry about it, your post did not seem rude in the least to me. I don't even know the terminology here yet. What it looks like to me is that there are two separate parts of the devcoin project here. There may be some confusion here about it, at least on my part. The bounty list is one thing, and then there is a more general part where developers of  "open source" ( I personally prefer the term Free Software) projects can get a share of 80% of devcoins. My original post was intended to address the second part. I did see a bounty project with which I may be able to help, and I'm planning to look into it.

Thanks for the welcome,

Mark

The list: http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin_bounty_now

Unthinkingbit is the one who handled the bounties. I was discussing this with someone else via PM, though, and I think it may be best to allow him to clarify. We actually have a bounty list... somewhere... that has all of the current bounties. Past that, I am not really sure what classifies as being something that can be accepted.

And welcome to the community; I want to apologize if you felt my post was being rude. Feel free to ask anything you need to know and we'll try to help out the best we can, .

How is your project supporting Devcoin at this point? You left out everything related to this project. Bounties aren't just based on every open source contributor there is, as that would mean millions of people should be on that share list. It's based on things that contribute to Devcoin and help add to its value and reach.

Well, I just discovered devcoin, so I haven't done anything directly related to it yet. The first thing I would be happy to do for Devcoin is to modify this page:

http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin

Where it says the following:

Devcoin is an ethically inspired project based on the BitCoin crypto-currency and created to help fund open source projects created by writers and software developers.

and this one:

http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=earn_devcoins_by_developing

Where it say this:

If a developer actively develops open source of any kind, they can apply to get a share of devcoin generation by messaging Metazilla through the bitcoin forum, or by posting in the devcoin thread

I think that if your policy is as stated above it would be a good idea to put it on both of these pages.

I really think that the policy is better for the Devcoin community as it is stated on the web pages, because it is good to promote freedom and free software development in general, and also because Devcoin will be much  more likely to be successful if you could bring in millions of people.

As the newest of newbies here, I obviously don't understand very well what is going on here, but I do find it very interesting, and hope I can be of service.

Hello,

The links dont work on iphone? Is it desktop only?

Hello,

  Do you think it would be possible for us to receive some devcoins for our work on the free software program Zen Cart? We are the fourth plugin contributor which can be seen here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?s=39a1872c387e71ea1ff771cec76b6d7d

(See Top Contributors at the bottom of the right hand sidebox.)

We have made 41 plugins, and given away tens of thousands of free templates to people trying to start their own internet businesses. Our templates are widely considered to be the best in the Zen Cart community. We are currently working on cutting edge development of responsive templates for Zen Cart with rbarbour. So far we have released six responsive templates so far.

http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=cat&id=2

We give help on the support threads for the templates daily, and have 3,903 posts.

We also have over two hundred free written and video tutorials which you can see here:

Thanks for your time consideration.

Sincerely,

Mark

P. S. I'm kind of excited about devcoins and am looking forward to joining the community.

Done that a few weeks ago :-)

I'm sorry but I'd ask, is there any progress on a new dvc wallet which updated to the new bitcoin codebase, with merged mining? I may be missed something 'cause I'm not catching this thread recently.

Are those scripts relative about our wallet?

Edit: sorry, I missed the word 'web'... so these are for web wallet, ok..

Thanks for telling me. Please return as soon as you can.

I've created an online ticker-type website for devcoin against the dollar for the chart bounty.
http://dvcticker.bugs3.com/

I am wondering how I can automatically create a javascript chart or excel file to record the prices hourly or daily. (e.g. the chart automatically updates each hour based on site data)  I will give 5 shares from the bounty if you can assist me!  (maybe more, too!) 

Now go and buy some

Done

I'm sorry to see you go.  Does that mean no more cloning guides?  

Done!

Done. Requested.
