At linux.conf.au I spoke about my pre-alpha implementation of Pettycoin, but progress since then has been slow. That’s partially due to yak shaving (like rewriting ccan/io library), partially reimplementation of parts I didn’t like, and partially due to the birth of my son, but mainly because I have a day job which involves working on Power 8 KVM issues for IBM. So Alex convinced me to take 6 months off from the day job, and work 4 days a week on pettycoin.
I’m going to be blogging my progress, so expect several updates a week. The first few alpha releases will be useless for doing any actual transactions, but by the first beta the major pieces should be in place…
Hey Congrats Rusty on the Birth of your Son.
Just reading through your how to documentation over on on netfilter.org and wanted to send through a thank you. From a CS major but network illiterate who spends his time tinkering with databases I’m really enjoying filling in some blanks.
Cheers,
