Though I ended up&#xA;doing a lot of work on it too. We actually got pretty far: there was&#xA;Android UI for it and a couple of apps we coded up. I wish we could have&#xA;pushed it over the finishing line and got real world usage. Hopefully we&#xA;can return to it someday soon.&#xA;&#xA;I think the hub/spoke concept was invented by goldsmiths in 16th century&#xA;Italy, as they started handing pieces of paper across their benches, or&#xA;*bancos* in Italian   :-)&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140410/662c5b53/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
