Or > maybe some people want to take up maintenance of the old UI? I think it would be ideal if someone wanted to take up wxBitcoin. Maybe after backporting to wx 2.8... That being said, I have no interest, as I hate wx, and prefer Qt in general ;) > I don't think that has very high priority, and should probably not be in the > main project. Please be careful to avoid the centralization mindset. There is no "main project"; there is bitcoind, wxBitcoin, Bitcoin-Qt, MultiBit, and many other non-functional clients, which should be given equal footing (before considering their differences). There shouldn't be given any special treatment to bitcoind and Bitcoin-Qt just because "Gavin et al" happen to maintain it. > Some of the older issues are absolutely still relevant, but 150+ open > issues is not something to be proud of, and I wonder how other open source > projects deal with this without too much stepping on people's toes :-) KDE literally just closed a bug of mine that I reported in 2002, because the component with the bug hasn't been part of KDE since 2008.
