I'm also figuring out how I should package the release. If I do it as open source, anyone could take the code and actually just apply it to any other cryptonote, and as for now my focus is on MCN so I'm not sure if I should do that immediately. Any input would be appreciated.
You must be joking.
If it is not open source nobody with sense will download it, especially with a cn coin.
Thank you for your input. I'm almost positive it will be open source then. It will come pre-packaged with MCN and instructions on how to get it to work with other cryptonote currencies. I'm on vacation this week and will release everything next week.
If you release an open source wallet for mcn that can work with other cn currencies, and it is attractive to users and does not have too many bugs, it could be a game changer for cn.
The big flaw remains that most people, 90%+, want to be able to see their transactions and balances on the blockchain. So unless and until that option exists cn will be limited but a good wallet will at least make the coin useable for more people.
