Re: Lizhi FTC Development : white paper (in Chinese)

Note : It is possible set up foundations, they don’t necessary take over the project. For example with Bitcoin, but can employ programmers who contribute to the community.

This Plan looks like something Lizhi (& Mirrax?) was trying to do in 2016?. It doesn’t seem to be mainly about a foundation? Lizhi has completed some of that work, AFB, Aciddude, Wellenreiter and Wrapper have also contributed to finish that release.

Whilst Lizhi is a lead programmer, he is not the only one in, or who has contributed to the team.

- Feather coins core development team, released in 2016 and July

(I. Introduction

Feathercoin (referred to as FTC), is a relatively young electronic currency, April 16, 2013 was born in the United Kingdom Oxford. It is an open source Internet currency, is based on a “peer-to-peer” technology network currency, virtual currency, the total amount of money is limited to 330 million. The feathers are not issued by a particular currency institution and are not subject to any agency’s interference and are guaranteed to be centralized.

The feathers were developed by the British University of Oxford, Peter Bushnell, which produced feathers by mining miners and produced a block every 1 minute. Each block now contains 80 feathers. Feather coins pay quickly, the transaction confirmation speed is 1 minute, is very fast to pay the currency. The feather coin client is maintained by an international technical team, keeping up with the pace of industry technology development and regularly upgrading new features to support 29 languages. The current release is version 0.11.2.

After three years of efforts, the feathers team has independent research and development capabilities, has developed a 51% attack against the ACP technology, against the machine gun pool eHRC technology, defense mining Neoscrypt algorithm and many other basic technologies. On this occasion, we summed up the past three years of gains and losses, looking forward to the future direction of the development of digital money encryption, the development of short-term and long-term development path to achieve the desired target.

This white paper includes a review of the development process, a technology development route, an ecosystem development route, a project development plan, and a promotion route.

(B) a brief review of the development process

There a few things, that need to be corrected, e.g that version 0.11.2 is the current production release.
This was a plan last year, that was postponed late

I’ve put a note in which is the current version.

@Lizhi did a lot to make those things in the plan happen. However, the release version of the Feathercoin software must take other considerations (miners have to upgrade, infrastructure, available donations, community, support team, quality assurance, testing, code checking etc. etc. etc ) to support that (software development?) plan / overview.

The background team have built up the foundations for the upgrade to 0.11 to be supported, as soon as feasible. Version 0.9.6 added other important requirements like usability and documentation and 0.9.6.1 contains important bug fixes and refinements.

@wrapper
Also release versions are not part of a white paper, where the coin and it’s history,functions and features should be described in a relative high level

This is the Text we need Bushstar to update, preferably cut and paste to update FTC on BitcoinTalk :

The Latest version needs update to 0.9.6.*

Team needs update : Wellenreiter : Software control

Some of links need removing or fixing
