It’s okay to go live. Are you setting up a redirect or a dns entry? In case of dns entry I could set up an Apache vhost so that the forum address would be http://forum.bitcoin.org/.
DNS entry.
I’m thinking of merging the bitcoin.org information with your site content so I can switch the whole bitcoin.org domain over. We need to replace the current bitcoin.org site with a user-oriented site before the release.
If the website and forum switch at the same time, then forum.bitcoin.org isn’t necessary unless we want it that way for looks.
Have you decided on the CMS to use? I should research Drupal and other CMSes and see what’s the most popular.
Great that the Linux build works now. It’s exciting to see how things will start rolling with the new release and the forum. Not too long until I can set up my own exchange and start promoting the currency to (web) business people.
The linux version, setup exe, tor option and better website/forum will all increase the percentage of visitors who can use it, and the autostart and minimize to tray will increase how many keep running it. All those factors multiply together.
NewLibertyStandard should perhaps change his pricing to the market price (i.e. what people are willing to buy and sell for) so that he doesn’t run out of coins.
It’s good to start low and only have the price go up.
I really like that he explains the concept that the cost of electricity is a minimum floor under the price. At a minimum you either have to pay the cost in electricity or pay someone the cost of production to make them for you.
