Yay, yet another person who wants to write their own client from scratch who will get the net code done, work a bit on wallet code and move on to something more exciting. Seriously, at this point it seems everyone and their mother are writing their own, or planning to write their own, client. Bitcoin's code actually can be fairly well segmented into the necessary pieces (CWallet was the first big chunk, more are coming) and comments are being added as a part of that effort. The current code is much, much more trustworthy than anything someone new will start to code, even if they have 20 lines of comments for each line of code. If you want to help the project, please dont write yet another new client library, just look for an existing one you can help with, or help with the original client. --=-ddW7bCKg4FsaCEQezOej Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJOMUYWAAoJEBrh01BD4I5U9toP/idVFFnKbauG3cLHSbFyiUqe 8aSaSmlXOeNHYN3zVkqshF0KdmGfKsEp9fBtiFA83GMk+XxcuR+4HTn12rtsJ//G h9SRsyr4SX9iO8VzS9o7Fc9hsQAMnXl5K4JEiB0StAmd+fFeM2Xk7VQT9jIw5tr8 ZgzJKFVPjfNXu0QFGGQfPDJgy+Ob+wK1FQrYiiIhDULJrmPXIiv10lwB3SfOtawc sL/Lnki05nKR3psxgHWxrsCiry6T99cE8e7jpLGQKLZugdwBhljK1RBndp8+PTsv qxqtpQNH65UMB+YOjElriDnBrcxGlkOwTiwGa55Kg9zi/kBaMpa5avfSBfk6S0fX fQEFpwcbz4fbt1IeQQUQm2hUdMV04KsC+lrEOUQTl246eg1KXRXqZyCMm5Wlu/xV BwCkYVSdTNibEbpccL7vCI3XFo4cOJ8X+oBz+JE7OtbJUAuGhLJdhjtw63l14fE8 Bg9QbxMbDBCq8lRlEfAax3LzM0215eGBIBF0/TLjTO9nlphUp8boQkDM7ERzsqFV oOWZVRCz9uUkTNa+qQ2gP1DZlbrnaoYXJBAl7GQfz6sBZQ2K+Uowh0kIpKchxCZk G7D5II/guoJELs04goKqc/Ej0LuNqW8I8UJLjYkOmJIRboLwRbnL4gMPKOCam/dK jOnUiDwuL0bEsM9v61w9 =rqC4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-ddW7bCKg4FsaCEQezOej--
