      Dear all,

      1st of all, congratulations for the fine project FeatherCoin. I was fascinated by several of its ideas, and now found the time to take a look at its code.

      Since I’m a developer, I’m first trying to learn the code, before going to mining or trading.

      I look forward to learn more about N-Scrypt and other interesting ideas present in FeatherCoin.

      All the best,
      Hilton

            Hello, @acidd !

            Thanks for your kind welcome.

            I’ve coded C and C++ for quite a long time, and now I’m getting my feet wet with Java and Python.

            I’ve downloaded FeatherCoin from git and compiled it. Since I found some warnings with my gcc 6.3.0 compiler, I’ve tried to eliminate their causes.

            How do I talk with the developers about my attempts at understanding FeatherCoin code ?

            I would like very much to contribute to this interesting project.

            All the best,
            Hilton

                @hgfernan the best way to contact the developers is via the forums here.

                All the devs are here and I would say the forums are the center hub of the community.

                  It is good to hear that, @acidd !

                  I supposed that the devs were in a different forum, where you could only get after being a more experienced user.

                  As a newbie, I still can’t read the roadmap session. So, please forgive my misinformed questions. I’m intending to enter the crypto-coin world by following the road of software development, instead of the usual mining way.

                  I’ve downloaded the git version of the FeatherCoin software from GitHub and played a little with it. My intention was to eliminate the compiler warnings it raised when compiled under the gcc 6.3.0 that I use here. And I’ve really done that.

                  So, my question is: would my patches to a few files interest the developers ? Probably that’s already being done somewhere. Another one is: where do I find a testbed to run my attempt of a version against ? Of course, I would like to contribute to that testbed effort, since it would benefit all development effort.

                  All the best,
                  Hilton

                      Thanks for the information. I will review my patches and prepare them in a convenient way for the pull request in the standard of the FeatherCoin dev team.
