Anyone want to take on the roll of official supporter of ProtoShares wallet and binary releases?   I will pay for the work, I just have too much on my plate to handle it directly.

Yes, I can take it.
Actually, as you can see I already working on it.  :)

Great.  I was hoping you would say that.

Please check your PM.

Looks like a good support bounty candidate, someone with windows should try to get on this

I investigate most common problem of ProtoShares "No block source available" and found what 0.2.0 and 0.4.0 ProtoShares clients for Windows compiled without UPNP support.

I think it's a main source of the problem as least for Windows version of the client.

ProtoShares client with TestNet support has UPNP enabled: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2390.0

MD5 of zip is 82f62d45657a352daa6147bc0eaddd7b

I will be glad if community will check my suspicions and post feedback here.
