if code readers are tired of looking for flaws, they can start to translate the code into the whitepaper 
maybe to the wiki, so it can be a group effort
maybe to the wiki, so it can be a group effortThis is just an excellent idea. Smaragda should think about it.
where's the original guy that was working on a whitepaper?

Until those issues are resolved, though, I believe that all the marketing savvy NXT folks should start making a BIG STINK out of the fact that NOBODY has been able to find a flaw yet in the other topic! Who knows? ...such marketing stunt could continue all the way till April 3!!! 
You know, I've been reading that thread with NO knowledge of code whatsoever with the intention of being able to write about it.
So far the only angle that presents itself to me is "people are doing
, about , but apparantly all is still . There is some 
going on, but CfB has went 
and 
, so all is probably well"I'm so out of my league there that I feel like I'm a toddler that's been admitted to university.

It seems like a very bad idea to suggest people use this form of online wallet!
Will nexern's client be cross-platform? When will we know more details / screenshots? Will it be open-source?
I am kind of feel bored these days because I cannot really read codes. So there aren't much to do except contacting some prospective investors and leisurely browsing this thread and some forums

I recall someone advising NXT marketing efforts to be put on hold until most of the client and network stability issues are resolved and I agree.

Personally, I have reached a Dead End in my efforts (although I will continue looking and bugging the smarter people) and there has also been admittance to not being able to find any more bugs (not to mention flaws) by another NXT friend that has provided much more valuable input than me along the way.
The closest anyone has gotten to the flaws, so far, was asking CfB a question that he could not answer because it would reveal the flaw, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the person asking the question had the specifics in mind!
Many people say so but it is probably me one of the most vocal. However, there would be AWESOME AWESOME promotional stunts when the nexrn's client is ready and the asset exchange is on the Testnet. By that time, I hope we also have a stable network ready for some serious stuffs.

Nobody tried to convert cpp to js?
Same problem that one of my guys ran into too.

The main problem is that JS doesn't support 64bit math, so script spend most time on emulating this.
P.S. So what?
If I hardcode 136941 first blocks and run it at single node will my chain win? Why not?
My guess is:
- You can't change the genesis block, as it's hardcoded into the general release and future blocks wouldn't be accepted at all
- You would need to know the pass phrases of a sufficient number of the 72 original accounts to forge the remaining blocks with at least the same total difficulty as the current chain
- Anyway, the release client has a restriction that it will never switch onto a fork >720 blocks old (not sure about this one?)
my update.html link tells me i can upgrade from 0.5.1 to 0.5.3 but the download button it gives me does nothing.
the link http://download.nxtcrypto.org/nxt-client-0.5.3.zip does appear to be valid though
has something broken in the update.html page?

Are you using the http:// or https:// page?
Use the http page, since the download itself is over http:// (at the moment). Https pages do not allow downloading of http documents. This will be fixed in the future when the files will also be available over https.
How about peer cleaning? Now I have 800 active peers. It is too much for my little node

If you are new to Nxt and don't want to read through 845 pages of forum posts, come to the wiki:
- Learn about Nxt
- Get started
- get basic questions answered in the FAQ and common problems pages
- Learn how to set up a public node on a VPS, using laowai80's steps
- read up on the Nxt high-level API, which you can use to build apps, games, clients, utilities, and more
Also remember there are great forums with lots of info and support for beginners. Many of the best Nxt wiki articles are based on information originally contributed here:
- The nxtcrypto.org forum
- The nextcoin.org forum
I comb these forums every day and pull tidbits to update the wiki with, so that you don't have to.
This thread is long and daunting for new folks. Don't get frustrated -- come to the places where new folks are welcomed and pampered!

This was me. The original page was built on the old wiki site, and then ported over to the new site (which is why the original version looks like it comes from Israel).
I have some formatting work to do to make inputs and outputs more reasonable (at NxtChg's request) but anyone can contribute. To fight spam, you have to register and let me know you want in (instructions are here) but after that you can edit as needed.
There is page on web.xml too: http://wiki.nxtcrypto.org/wiki/Web_xml_configuration_file
I will also have a page built for APIv2 (the low-level API) as that one is constructed.

Generated code approx 2x faster than my implementation, but not readable. And still no enough fast as required.
Ok. Just curious. I have zero knowledge at web-developing Nobody tried to convert cpp to js?

I didn't check it yet. It's not fast enough AFAIK.
I'm pointing to absolutely bad GPL license.
