Incidentally, it'd help if we got some insight into why those branches are being maintained; what features are in those branches that Bitcoin Core doesn't have? I've run into a number of cases where companies were maintaining forks of Bitcoin Core unnecessarily, where a different, loosely coupled, architecture could do what they needed to do without including the new logic in the codebase itself. -- 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 000000000000000013137b1bd77e352d28fa36309be1c821180eda408bcb745c
