arhuacoHello there. Testing pettycoin for the first time. Downloading blocks :-) Block 70003:10
rustyarhuaco: hi!03:12
rustyarhuaco: what version are you running?03:13
arhuacoHi there. Latest from github. I just retrieved the repo.03:13
rustyCool!  I'm fixing some bugs, but nothing a normal client should hit :)03:14
rustyarhuaco: Do you have an address?  I can send you some pettycoins if you want :)  They're testnet bitcoins, so not really worth anything :)03:16
arhuacoNice. I'll play around starting from  the "Things you can do" , from README.md. I do not have an address yet. I'll get one.03:16
rustyarhuaco: cool!03:21
arhuacoI am not running Bitcoin in testnet. Should I?03:23
arhuacoI guess so...03:26
rustyarhuaco: you can, but only if you want to use the gateway.03:27

arhuacoSorry, local issue... I'll try using one of the keys I generated for tests to see if it can be used to create the pettycoin address.03:33

rustyarhuaco: just prefix P- to turn it into a pettycoin address.  Hmm, you might want to feed dumbwallet the private key though, so you can use it.  Or use pettycoin-tx directly to spend it, but that's hardcore :)03:36
arhuacorusty: Thanks.  I'll feed the private key. in the mean time I think I should also join testnet, to better test thinhgs... I'll do that. Feeding key first...03:38

rustyarhuaco: feel free to ask questions, or submit documentation patches, of course!03:52
arhuacorusy: Sure :-) I'm interested. I think I'll be around. I'll start using it...03:54

githubbypettycoin/master b0a978a Rusty Russell: Flesh out TODO.md....04:04
arhuacoI generated the key myself so I do not have it in base58. It is interesting to accept a raw hexadecimal key or not?04:05
arhuacorusty: I guess not for the moment... But the library pybitcointools accepts this format.04:07
rustyarhuaco: am happy to accept raw hex key.  Simple matter of coding :)04:07
arhuacorusty: Ok. I'll try my luck with a first patch :-)04:09
arhuacorusty: This might help if you are going to accept other bases: http://arhuaco.org/tmp/base_n.patch  -- This passes the tests.05:49
arhuacorusty: In the mean time I'll install Bitcoin and run it in testnet. I'll need it...05:54
rustyarhuaco: nice work.  Couple of minor comments:05:55
rusty1) I'd assert if base is wrong, since it's a programmer bug, not a user one.05:56
rusty2) Might want to create a test/run-01-base16.c by cut and pasting run-01-base58.c05:56
rusty3) A commit message would be nice :)  You can either submit to github, or just send it to the pettycoin-dev ml05:57
rustyarhuaco: the nice thing about using the ml is that others can copy you :)05:58
arhuacorusty: I like the ML.05:58
arhuacorusty: I'll send the patch, and I can continue with the raw import later. There are a lot of validations done when you import keys, and you do not do (all of) them when you import a raw key. But I have to read/learn more here...06:00
rustyarhuaco: yes, and we only support compressed keys, too.  They're shorter, and modern bitcoin clients will generate them anyway.06:01
