 indeed...  would it not be worthwhile, do you think, to leverage
*this* opportunity... such that the funds were available to *create*
an eco-responsible coin that is *properly* libre, properly
peer-to-peer distributed, and so on?

 look at what i put out only a few weeks ago, we analysed at least two
alt-coins that, whilst the people behind it had their hearts in the
right places they *still* did not fundamentally get it.

 if we don't do this "properly" then those alt-coins will be all that
is available... oh and bitcoin.  is that something we really really
want?

 gone midnight here (julie) i'll write a more complete reply tomorrow.
