personally i cant estimate if this kind of broad testing i proposed is even necessary, but yes safety first if possible.
with feature complete i mean no big new features coming in, like zmq. those kind of deep changes can have a lot of unknown effects and mostly need some kind of regression testing.

it is also very easy to get testnet coins. with 1 thread mining you will allready find many blocks.

I found my third on a full node in 6 months on a AMD Octacore   Cheesy

in main net, yes Grin

Uuupppssss, missed the test net  Grin Tongue

personally i would welcome a freezed master branch for new features and also new "official" beta test bins. We can let it run on different OS, we can support you with testing. Most also can compile it themselfs but you would reach more possible testers if you post some windows bins again.

it seems that the newest work was merged to developement branch, so i guess this is also what the devs have in mind more or less?

is 0.9 "feature complete" ? current state seems very stable to me too, runs fine on my machines, only experienced small and allready known troubles.

All of this.

I'd say though that the majority cannot/will not compile it themselves, making official binaries even more important.

The new missives cover a lot of the way things will be structured going forward, but this is more or less on point. Dunno what feature complete means. In general, I assume the lack of official posted binaries on the website are to prevent people from using it for mission critical things. You can imagine if Poloniex (or some other exchange, service, company) saw new bins posted and went "welp, looks like its time for stuff to happen" and we're all like "Well, those are really for testing only" and then people cry.

too cute to not make on topic



The dog is actually sad because Jojatekok has decided to stop working on MoneroX, and MoneroX doesn't work properly with the low-memory, database-supporting master branch of the Monero daemon. Sad

See here for more info on him moving on: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12287483

I thought the dog was sad because the question keeps getting asked without an inkling of what should be the priority of a technology that's aim is end user functionality rather than a speculative dog and pony show, but the jojatekok news makes me sad. Has anyone picked up the project yet?

I think this is good news, because Monero core devs did emphasize that GUI is not a priority at all. New low-memory database implementation of console client is the priority. So I hope jojatekok will join to Monero core devs to help them in order to write a code or to make quality assistance.

I can add, I am completely happy with current console client, except it's HUGE memory eating. For example I can't install current Monero client on a VPS with 1GB virtual memory. THIS is the problem, not GIU absence...

Compile from github master. It is fairly stable (unstable work is going to the development branch now) and only needs about 50 MB of RAM

Thinking about investing a few K's in Monero. Is now a good time? Could monero be as big as bitcoin?

I think so.  As of right now, the price is .47 cents in USD.  This is the low end of our average price for the last few months.  Monero generally fluctuates between .50 cents and .60 cents.

There's been quite a bit of work going on behind the scenes.  Many of us are testing the new database and eventually we'll get an official GUI.  

This is very much like early Bitcoin.

I feel that Monero development is going slow last months. And community remains same size.

The development isn't slow -- there is a lot being done and the pace is reasonable -- but the release cycle is slow.

This is not meant to say there isn't a problem, but to identify the problem more clearly.

Did you do anything to help one or the other, beyond "feeling"?

No, what can I do? I don't have technical knowledge as devs have.

Second thing you mention is about expanding the community. I don't think you necessarily need tech knowledge to help on this.

You can donate time: learning and teaching others about Monero or just adding towards the positive vibe.

You can donate to the Dev fund or a specific project.

You can play Crypto-Kingdom and add both while having fun.

Yes, do to emissions this community needs to continually grow as well as see milestones being met. Uphill battle but worth the payoff in the end.
