Um... yeah. Note how I said on your original pull-req that I'd be happy to see it merged once the bugs were fixed (95% of the transactions it produced had zero fees even with zero priority txins for some reason) and you added a lower bound on fees in the wallet code as a "do no harm" measure. In fact, I think I wasn't being conservative enough given that it affects relaying of transactions. Instead add both lower and upper bounds to what the wallet and relaying code uses for 0.9.0 and it'd probably be safe to merge. We can get relax those "training wheels" in 0.9.1 or 0.9.2 once we've had some real-world experience with how the estimation system works in practice, particularly for how it affects relaying. --=20 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 00000000000000036253c7a02061121b6a12484278a3c472a22e47a821c28a69 --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQGrBAEBCACVBQJSa28aXhSAAAAAABUAQGJsb2NraGFzaEBiaXRjb2luLm9yZzAw MDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDM2MjUzYzdhMDIwNjExMjFiNmExMjQ4NDI3OGEzYzQ3MmEy MmU0N2E4MjFjMjhhNjkvFIAAAAAAFQARcGthLWFkZHJlc3NAZ251cGcub3JncGV0 ZUBwZXRlcnRvZC5vcmcACgkQJIFAPaXwkfsx8QgAnVR7Yg3SnPAjHLUsnaQ3l1E7 dwrjWIGsAolQqQ/QlqIbmfNI0CCXccfTFhLxgFho8bf9x8Fef113exW1YlHAwxvy tFVU+SQKD6gKPFek1Ib241RKPo4LM8rAdcAwEvbIOZaHuUaMbcYeLi2RAJHk/CQc 4kr2v1HOgtJXO9MADKgwBMVnRi+HR2C3l/MG4IbBt32b1Ai8LWicdPEzexH0HvmM k3k4eyoxTyh9P6VuH9BHJrnFCxrit7aYGB8D5kZRem+gN7HmV+fY3TurhP+sopoy wmTKHkhZ8ewM2b67jirxREawVuZmSTAfVYjQZHnTcQDJ5BsiBPkDyM1hQR6z4Q== =BEVP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3--
