So, I believe we just need to collaborate to get some stuff done as a community, outside of the Core Devs. They are busy.
What do we want to do?
Are we on slack? If not lets make one and start a brainstorming session. The topic should be development funds
Edit - we are on slack - monerofoundation.slack.com
Pm me your email for invites, i think there should not be a problem about privacy for a public foundation
I won't use forum that requires javascript active to browse.
Something i wanted to say
Have been an emotional supporter since day one. But the state of affairs in here are pressing me to second thoughts. I mean what exactly is happening here? Mew making their own shitty forum while core team forum is nothing to talk about. No clear idea which website belongs to whom and where should we go to find info. And the prehistoric site designs dont do much to engage anyone.
Where is the community, where are the ideas, what is happening actually?
Only one thing i know, the db is coming and it is coming . Sigh
Dont tell me it is in testing. Where are the repeated requests by the devs to test it
These are harsh but true words. We need to Organise. We need to streamline and stop playing games.
Here is what i want to happen -
Change the mew name to Monero Foundation, the foundation will have voting to select new members, irrespective of their holdings.
Only two groups. The Foundation and the Core Team
We need a new good looking website.
We need a new good looking forum. No scratch experiments. Who got the time for that. Time is of utmost value in these times of competition.
These will be the official sites. The foundation will have a separate site and can have a private forum. Dont need two forums.
The core team needs to clearly define a timeline of things to be developed. They need to stop wasting time and pick up one thing at a time and work collaboratively on it.
To the extent of my knowledge we need the db and then the gui. We should focus on these goals only
Then the question arises of funding - there is no other way but to invite funding. So the real question is why will people fund us. We need a service like mymonero which we can sell shares of. We need to brainstorm some ideas.
All in all a scam called darkcoin is ahead of monero just because they are organized, focused, swift
As David just pointed out to me, Here it is.
https://xmrmonero.com/forums/general-discussionsAll it really needs now is the userbase to signup (already did) and for the shading to be corrected for readability. That half tone is ridiculous.
