new binary release?
June 11, 2010, 06:19:41 PM
It's been a long time since the last release of Bitcoin software.
Any new binary release?

That's true. It is getting to be time for a new release. Maybe
Laszlo's performance patch will make it into the svn too?

Please note that I'm not the Bitcoin author - if you don't trust me
then don't use these. I have written instructions that should get you
started if you want to build your own (look around at my other
posts).
Some unofficial builds that I created:
Mac OS X, Linux (64 bit) and Win32 builds available
http://heliacal.net/~solar/bitcoin/builds/
This includes a tiny patch I added to show how many hashes per second
are being processed. A picture of the hash counter is attached.
If you want the patch so you can build it yourself it is available
here:

I'm trying to generate coin with your windows build, and it seems
that it doesn't work at all. It was working with the official exe.
Is there a bug somewhere on official code?

Joozero, what is the problem with it? I use that binary myself and it
works for me.

I doesn't generate coins anymore.
Anyway it could be a problem with windows 7 x64, even if the latest one
was working.
I know that there is a lot of math and we have to be luck, it is just
strange 
I'll wait some more ...

Joozero I'm sorry if it doesn't work for you.. I noticed that the
performance with the windows client seems slower than the other two I
built.. I'm not sure if this is because of a mistake I made or something
I overlooked in the code but I will take another look and let you know
if I find anything. Maybe there is something else wrong with it besides
just the performance..

Thanks laszlo..

I'm working on getting version 0.3 released as soon as I can. Just a
last few things left to do. It's been a long time since 0.2 and we need
to get a prebuilt bitcoind with command line and JSON-RPC available.
This time we'll have both 32-bit and 64-bit linux binaries, and Laszlo
is going to build a Mac OSX release. Plus, we'll include the German,
Dutch and Italian translations by DataWraith, Xunie and Joozero (thanks
you guys!).
