If it loses this, it is not&#xA;Bitcoin.&#xA;&#xA;But I also agree with Gavin that the bitcoin-development email list is a&#xA;perfectly good place to have these types of discussions. I myself have&#xA;used it repeatedly to publish ideas specifically due to wide readership&#xA;and multiple independent archives.&#xA;&#xA;&gt; PS: We don&#39;t even know who runs BitUndo. They seem to have lots of&#xA;&gt; money to spend on web design - I wonder where it came from?&#xA;&#xA;Actually we do: Eric Springer&#xA;&#xA;See&#xA;&#xA;http://www.coindesk.com/double-spending-unconfirmed-transactions-concern-bitcoin/&#xA;&#xA;https://github.com/espringe - joined Feb 11 2010&#xA;&#xA;Anyway that&#39;s just twitter bootstrap or something; I hear the wizards&#xA;can pump out a site like that in a few hours.&#xA;&#xA;-- &#xA;&#39;peter&#39;[:-1]@petertodd.org&#xA;000000000000000004af1fb3b77c0f7ffe640982e440ac3eb085fa51d8207838&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;A non-text attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;Name: signature.asc&#xA;Type: application/pgp-signature&#xA;Size: 685 bytes&#xA;Desc: Digital signature&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140423/f0ab2011/attachment.sig&gt;</html></oembed>
