[Dev] Feathercoin version 0.9.3.1 Official release & Feedback
-
Thanks guys, I know you worked hard to get FTC 0.9.3 released. Well done + kudos
-
good job . I’m studying 0.11
-
Just noted this on github
https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/issues/231
The prebuilt litecoin QT version (1) uses a 1-year old OpenSSL version (2).
There were 6 releases afterwards (3) with many security fixes (4).
Please upgrade to openssl-1.0.1q from Dec 2015
Thank you!(1) I checked only so far:
https://download.litecoin.org/litecoin-0.10.4.0/linux/litecoin-0.10.4.0-linux32.tar.gz -
The pre-compiled Linux versions should use the openssl as a shared library, so updating openssl on the host should slove that problem
-
When will Feathercoin.com be updated with this?
-
Good point!!
Linux versions are available, but we missed Windows and Mac versions.
This will be solved as soon as possible

@Wellenreiter who is it that manages feathercoin.com anyway?
-
Generally the infrastructure is currently maintained by @MrWyrm , @uncle_muddy and myself, where uncle_muddy focuses a bit on the server and server OS/infrastructure, MrWyrm on the Web site and MrWyrm and myself on the forum.
@wrapper does a great work on log and security analysis and advise for all servers.
@lizhi focuses on software development for new versions of the Feathercoin software, while I create the Linux installation packages for new official releases and try to maintain the Android wallet.
@mirrax and @ChekaZ monitor social media and other forums, as bitcointalk and reddit, and feed twitter and facebook.

hi, could you tell me what stable version for windows is the correct? I use last I found on ftc oficial website, from debug windows: v0.8.7.1-beta-qr
and you are talking about higher releases. Will something newer in installation-version/all files in archive be uploaded?
thanks -
It should be 0.9.3, feathercoin.com is up to date with the Linux versions, the Mac version is still on 0.8.7.1 and the Windows version points to ftc-c.com for the download rather than hosting it on feathercoin.com - but it is 0.9.3. Its still kind of a cluster but hopfully they can put in some time this weekend and get the new site up and running.
-
Yeah, it’s a temp fix. I don’t have a compiled version for Mac.
-
Just found out we can store binaries at git-annex and git-lfs.
-
We also should think about signing the windows binaries.
The Linux ones are not signed, but the download repository has a signature, so people can establish a trust relationship to the repo for automatic updates. -
Just noting the Ubuntu 16.04 build is not on the on the Opensuse build page.

I’ve been Starting to test 0.9.3.1 Ubuntu 16.04 PPA package release, here are some of the new features that have been added.
Where to report Feathercoin, Feathercoind or Feathercoin-qt issues :
https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/issuesAdvanced Features -
Multi - Signature Transactions :
Add a text comment to the transaction :
Add Openname addresses to the BlockchainPlugins -
Bitmessage
Shapeshift
CoinnectorThe first impression is they need some design work, form layout is a bit of an “art form”. I’ve posted a couple of issues on Github, where the fields and titles need slight adjustments.
The new features are “Advanced usage” so need addition help, description of feature and instructions to make them usable.
-
A contentious issue has always been setting transfer fees.
Transfer fee settings used different code in the Litecoin fork. I see the Bitcoin core 0.9.3.X has fee auto fee adjust,
what are the Feathercoin Transfer fees and settings for 0.9.3.X?
-
I am trying to do a few minor changes to Feathercoin and push them upstream.
Have we lost the Qt Creator set-up? Is that because we moved from Litecoin to Bitcoin Base?
But I have started to note a couple of issues that it is important to recording them first, to prevent merging issues.
- Feathercoin Copyright out of date on Splash screen
- Wallet backup feature
Should continue to exit the program if you press cancel (I have a good back-up)
There needs to be a check box in settings (* Ask for backup on program exit?)
-
Qt creator/qmake generate a makefile to compile the gui version. This now is handled by the configure script an makefile.ac, so that no seperate step to configure qt is needed.
