Also, this is confusing:

Is DGEX not part of the community? What makes the NXT community separate from DGEX? Are you referring to the forum? Does anyone else see what I'm getting at here or am I a complete lunatic?

Bai,

I signed up and I'm at my console home page. How do I set up a VPS? Do I launch an EC2 instance? Which flavor (linux, windows) of Amazon Machine Image should I choose?

Also, has anyone confirmed that this will help nxt network stability?

Why am I doing this when I can't even get my client to run properly?

I created a new thread for the bounty CFB announced so it's easy to see who's working on it and what needs to be done: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=404321.new#new. Please post there if you're interested in working on it.

LOL, that's our own Kim Jong-un

I always wonder about such dictators - how stupid do you have to be to believe that trying to hide a problem equals solving it?

Perhaps I was being unclear. This has no bearing on your or any of the other developers continued efforts, and thank you for stepping up. I would contribute more if I could but I'm just not as technical as you.

What I was referring to with "time" is the time that outside interests have to spend looking for authoritative information on the topic. There is a LOT of trolling going around and it is my belief that a large part of the community views nextcoin.org as THE authoritative source on NXT outside of this thread, simply because it has the most activity. I say that strategically, de-centralization in this sense is a bad idea because misinformation is being disseminated and in my case, (the reason I'm getting very heated about all of this) useful information is being threatened for deletion because of a clear conflict of interest. This is  hurting NXT price discovery and serving as a barrier to entry for interested investors. This has no bearing on who Graviton is but the conflict exists nonetheless. Meanwhile, people who are trying to get involved or are, at the very least, interested in investing may not be getting quality information because of the lack of a clear, authentic source.

       For how much longer do we tolerate this ?!?!? I definitively moving out to forums.nxtcrypto.org - they have very nice slidebar. I'm sick of Graviton's puppet forum. Please don't call it official anymore.

I disagree with this opinion. I think we need a voting system. Now how can we come to a consensus ?

I second this opinion. there has to be a lengthy debate, why we need voting.
did I read somewhere it was connected with the asset exchange!?

Yeah, you guys are doing terrific job! Thanks! We truly need something like what you're building.

This is the realist's view. Until all the codes are open-sources, the whole thing belongs to BCNext who is not only anonymous and but also has not said a thing without a messenger since two months ago .
But I believe BCNext has a very strong view toward decentralization. That's I think where we are heading to.

Just to add that: I was not there but I suspect that Bitcoin at the beginning would be kind of similar to where we are now. At first Bitcoin is basically just Satoshi's pet project until the he disappeared and the community took over

https://www.facebook.com/nxtcoin - Just joined up, though very small, everyone come join up!

I have many XRP
And some btc and usd @Stamp..

If you want a short answer the you can trust opticalcarrier and his statement earlier, NXT wiki and information in this thread (the first page as a summary). There is no elitist view here. You are very welcome to join the community and nothing can prevent you doing so. The approach is just the way NXT is designed to be.

My perspective is that there is only one decision maker right now until the whole shebang is open sourced. That's BCNext. Following him,  Jean-Luc and C-f-b support his overall plan through development of the "core" of NXT.

Everyone else is just a motivated individual that has an interest in NXT and is willing to help in their areas of interest/expertise.

There is plenty of opportunity for motivated and interested individuals to centralize information and coordinate projects outside of the "core".

Would be great if you could write up a guide on getting people up and running on AWS. Windows and Linux.

Agree.

Give me your solution to my global voting issue earlier? Any feature similar to the voting system would benefit from a voting system. You don't know what kind of feature is going to be built upon the NXT protocol yet.

Im the one behind the whole 'family' of sites in the "NXT Foundation" that 2Kool4Skewl and I conceptualized. That said, I cannot agree with a previous poster that said that forums.nxtcrypto.org are the "official" forums as we do want decentralization here.

We do also want, however, a clear face of representation of NXT to the world, which is why I and 3 other people are cooperating in the "NXT Foundation"  (www, info, and forums host sites under the nxtcrypto.org domain.  I simply admin DNS for the domain so there is as much decentralization as possible)

Graviton was offered the opportunity to change his site over from nextcoin.org to nxtcrypto.org but he elected to control things there as he saw fit, so btc24 at nxtalk.org agreed to cooperate with us and changed his site over to become forums.nxtcrypto.org  - So everyone please use which ever forums you see fit. 

Whatever your personal opinion of Graviton is, it cannot be denied that his exchange and forums were no less than invaluable for spreading NXT.

I might add that the people runnign the individual sites www info and forums are running it out of their own pocket, and I dont believe any of them are original stakeholders (neither am I)

Yes, like someone else had stated, we just stepped up to do a job that needed to be done.


you sorely underestimate the amount of time that me and those 3 other people are spending on the info/www/forums sites of nxtcrypto.org.

You just may not be aware of the resources you have available?  visit forums.nxtcrypt.org and start speaking out!

Thanks for everyone that tested mynxt.info and helped me find some annoying bugs. I have corrected several of them and made some speed and reliability improvements.

I consider the software now to be Beta, I have created a new forum thread to discuss existing and future features, it can be found here: https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,2607.0.html

Nice!?!
