Is there anyway to do merged mining on windows?
Merged mining should work fine on Windows. Use the windows binaries from http://i0pool.bitparking.com and start i0coin.exe with the "-server" command line option, or run the non-gui version i0coind.exe instead. Install Python for windows and use that to run the merged mining proxy, same as the linux command to run it.

None of the text renders for me in the linux gui. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10, anyone know why?
I guess you could just add 2 sets of MM data into Bitcoin - one for namecoin and one for i0coin (after the namecoin data in the coinbase ... assuming namecoin MM ignores the data after it?)

Diverting some of my mining to i0coin, I do believe it can be resurrected.
Ditto.

A new version, 32504, with source and windows binaries is available at http://i0coin.bitparking.com. This version has the following changes:
* Add a checkpoint at block 131,130
* Merge patch from bitcoin to fix issues with database writes in the presence of lots of transactions
* Add merged mining support, ported from the namecoin implementation
The database writes patch fixes an issue that came up when the solidcoin 1 chain was under pressure from specially crafted transactions. I cherry-picked the bitcoin fix for the problem.
The merged mining code pulls in the changes I made to enable merged mining. I haven't activated support for i0coin as an auxiliary chain yet as this requires forking the block chain. After a bit more testing I'll pick a block number to activate and provide another update. In the meantime you can test this on the testnet, or use it as a primary chain to mine namecoins at the same time on the main net. See this post for how to do that.

Anyone having the new windows binaries?
I built the following: http://i0coin.bitparking.com/i0coin-win32-bin-v32502.zipThat includes the 'i0coin.exe' for the GUI and 'i0coind.exe' for the command line tool. I've only lightly tested it, downloading the blockchain successfully. Backup your wallet before running!
Thanks, it is downloading and mining fine!
Is the 'i0coin.exe' an actual GUI? If so, that's awesome.
As for merged mining, that's cool, too. Thanks for your developments!
Woot, I went for it. It's a real GUI that looks just like bitcoin's GUI. Good stuff!

Wiling to take more risks, even though i0coin restarted 3 times,
You get no risk, and full value
Awesome, thanks, much appreciated! You get no risk, and full value
Hm i sent 15btc instead of 7.5btc, application bugged out, and two mouse click input must of been read.
Never mind, I saw the I won't take solidcoin
I0coin, bitcoin been sent.
Keep the 15btc from me as.
I changed the donation, 100K i0coin to 10K i0coin.
And you can keep the 200% more btc.

Well post your address and take your price, I need Bitcoin, solidcoin and i0coin.
Thanks!

Solidcoin: I don't run the solidcoin client so don't need this, thanks though
And will all my 300K i0coins be worth anything? Or be on a separate block chain
And have only zero? It be good if you did the same thing as solidcoin 2.0;
and Pre-mined and give me what i had.
As I mined over 300K hoping it would one day be worth something
When merged mining is activated it'll be on a fork of the main blockchain. This means your existing i0coins will be valid and will work. I'll do some more testing then look at having merge mining switch on at a set block number, similar to the way I've set the timetravel exploit fix to activate.And have only zero?

Doubt 100K i0coins will be worth anything; I feel u need something more worth and value,
As the currency has been brought back to life multiple times.
Sending you 7.5btc and 750 solidcoin, and 10K i0coins instead
300% more btc and 300% more solidcoin.
if i0coin value of lets say 0.0001 that will only be 10btc.
Sending 5more btc and 500 more solidcoin, thats 13btc or so.
So what are you MM this scamchain with ? Ixcoin ?
How you plan to stop 51% attacks with such low hashrate and open exchange ?

Sounds like a good plan !
Thanks for your efforts !
Thanks for your efforts !
Doublec: will you also reopen your i0coin exchange after block 150.000 ?
I will probably do something if another exchange doesn't. Whether it's the old exchange, or something a little different, I'm not sure yet. If it was the old exchange it'd require merge mining to be active, and for a healthy hash rate distribution.

I don't have many coins but if you can get someone to fix it, I am willing to contribute what I have.
I have 165,000 i0coins I have mined and willing to donate to the chain if someone will fix it and an exchange opens.
I will contribute 5 BTC, 1000 IXC, and 1000 IOC if the reward is lowered to 1 or less (instead of 48).

Anyone want to test merged mining with i0coin? I have a first cut at code, taken from the namecoin implementation, and a post explaining how to test it.
