Delegate Proposal: jcalfee

[jamesc]

I am running a DevShares delegate, please vote for me: jcalfee1-developer-team.terrier ...  This is a 100% position to fund BitShares development and testing.   Thank you!

This is only on DevShares .. you have to be on that network to vote for this delegate.

BM had said he will change the allocation with an announcement. Thats happened, then?

There is this from Dec 29: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=12664.msg167826#msg167826
We have not seen anything more recent.  I think BM is going to make one though.

Vikram just started a release thread with a link that shows the tag and binaries:  https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=13010.0

You can import a private key to test it.  I choose to transfer my balance to a new wallet.  In the next release, there will be a new RPC command, wallet_import_keys_from_json that should aid in the process.

A torrent is being seeded.

Bear catches fish, hunter shoots bear before it can eat the fish. I think I'll stick with cake :).

thank you!  .. wow, that last vote really determines our fate.  We are not getting any breaks now.  That is good, there is much to be done.  Thanks for the support, I have found more dedicated candidates and I'll be casting a vote soon.  I still need your votes, it would be nice to get off of the bottom so we can stay active well into the new year.

Also, super thanks to cn-members for your translation.  I'm glad we got that finished.  I posted it yesterday to the Delegates group.  Just one question, did Google translate this right: does "having one's cake and eating it too" really translate to "fish and bear's paw can have both" ??  :)

Me and Callmeluc did the translation .
Yes , Fish and Bear's paw are two good food in ancient China , the slang is that you can't have both .
So the positive expression would be "fish and bear's paw can have both"

[clayop]

It's surprising that he is still at #252. Let's vote for our developer!

[jamesc]

Haven't you been paid $20k since Oct 2nd by I3?

Developers are transitioning into paid delegate positions...

[xeroc]

Can we assemble a list of forum members that have BMs number and maybe also distribute some more numbers of core developers .. toast, vikram, nathan, ....

James and his helper delegate earns a +1 for waking me up today to resolve a network issue.

you are lucky we didn't sent  you a fire track to wake you up  :D

I wanted to wake you up at your 5AM , but I didn't have your number , and I was worry that wake you up so early may not produce better result .
In the near future I think it's better to allocate 24 hour shifts at least before 1.0 .

Yes.  I have my phone with me 24-7 so we just need a few people who are awake and know the number.

pls provide me your number also for this kind of purposes.... thx

The immediate plan is to support the existing web wallet and make some more performance improvements (largely due to many new user-issued-assets).  Then continue to put together an secure online experience using TITAN and the mail servers.  Both are a very high priority as the race continues knowing the Christmas Holiday are fast approaching.

EDIT: I'm implementing common RPC calls in the BitShares-JS library.  This will mean we can take existing wallets like the the qt web_wallet or the next re-write (a light-weight BitShares wallet) and run as a multi-user wallet.  BitShares-JS repository could offer a functional www browser-based rpc console where a user may receive and send funds privately.

I will get in touch with jcalfee1 today if possible (must be online both the same time  :))
And will discuss the details (helper delegate name, pay frequency, etc.)

Great work... is the bitshares js lib a port of bitcore as a base? Can you sign transactions? You still need a node to run to make RPC calls right? Is the mail system the foundations of "talking" to the library and thus make RPC calls to the bitshares node?

I'm just curious as to what you see the big picture here as where the bitshares JS is going together with the mail project.

I'm guessing web wallets and market place apps would use the JS library for efficiency purposes over talking directly a bitshares node?

Yes

well said: yes to all ..

I'm only using a small part of bitcore.  I do like that project a lot, it is a valuable resource.  It is quite large but they are planning to modularize it.  Also I can trim out what we need if it comes to that.

BM can correct me if I get something wrong!  Basically, the efficiency comes from using the mailbox mainly because you know what belongs to you (it is in your mailbox).  You don't know who sent it or what it is unless you can derive the private key to decrypt it ( this requires your private key ).  So the mail is reasonably private.  I'm assuming we utilize default mail servers initially but the flexibility to re-configure and add redundancy is already built-in should someone have a need.  I imagine this will be the primary means of transferring transactions and will become a selling point for delegates that run a separate mail server.  Here is Nathan's paper BitShares Mail.
