Is Anyone Working on the Wallet?

So I've noticed the MinCoin wallet/daemon is several versions behind the Litecoin software from which it was forked. It also appears no new commits have been added to the software in 2 months, and before that single commit it's been 9 months.

 

Now I'm seeing this error coming from the wallet, "Mandatory upgrade to Litecoin 0.8.6.1+. https://litecoin.org/upgrade". Which means:

 

* May not be applicable to MinCoin, and should just be ignored.

* Someone should change the error message to say "MinCoin" instead of "Litecoin".

* Is possibly a sign the software needs some critical fixes.

 

It's also not a good sign when the developers have disabled the Github issue tracker. It's a bit like hanging up a "Do Not Disturb" sign.

 

Little things like this really bring down the perceived value of MinCoin, at least among developers.

Try using this github repository instead. https://github.com/vipah/mincoin.git

It should report, "version" : 60500

That seems to have fixed things. Thanks!

 

We really need to get all these loose MNC pieces in order (ie. Wallet versions/repos, website, coin details (which were changed)... Having these things all over the place make it hard to use MNC.

 

As part of this new work to develop a new face of Mincoin, we should also to focus on consolidating and updating all MNC resources.
