As a result of these efforts I think MultiBit is now suitable for the entry level Bitcoin user. I propose that we put MultiBit as the default desktop client on the bitcoin.org "Choose your wallet" page. I think a typical new user comes to bitcoin.org from a google search or a Bitcoin news article. We want them to peruse the bitcoin.org site and try out a wallet. They should be able to get MultiBit up and running in a tea break. Then perhaps they get a colleague to send them some bitcoin from an Android phone by zapping a QR code. We say: "Welcome to the Bitcoin economy !" There is plenty MultiBit cannot do of course. However if in the first ten minutes we get the new user interested there is a good chance they will go on to explore other Bitcoin wallets and solutions. Let me know if you think this is a good idea (or not!) and if you have any questions. Jim https://multibit.org
