You can get it from\n\n     https://bitcoinxt.software/\n\nI feel sad that it's come to this, but there is no other way. The Bitcoin\nCore project has drifted so far from the principles myself and many others\nfeel are important, that a fork is the only way to fix things.\n\nForking is a natural thing in the open source community, Bitcoin is not the\nfirst and won't be the last project to go through this. Often in forks,\npeople say there was insufficient communication. So to ensure everything is\ncrystal clear I've written a blog post and a kind of \"manifesto\" to\ndescribe why this is happening and how XT plans to be different from Core\n(assuming adoption, of course).\n\nThe article is here:\n\n    https://medium.com/@octskyward/why-is-bitcoin-forking-d647312d22c1\n\nIt makes no attempt to be neutral: this explains things from our point of\nview.\n\nThe manifesto is on the website.\n\nI say to all developers on this list: if you also feel that Core is no\nlonger serving the interests of Bitcoin users, come join us. We don't bite.\n-------------- next part --------------\nAn HTML attachment was scrubbed...\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150815/ce48d631/attachment.html\u003e"}
