A problem with continued development of Lucre is that various solutions
to the coin marking problem have been proposed, and various opinions as
to the likely patent-infringment-ness have been given, leaving me no
clearer as to what the best way to proceed is.
Is there anyone out there willing and qualified to evaluate the various
approaches and decide which, if any, are viable?
Cheers,
Ben.
