Hi bitcoin-development, blockchain.info generates non-BIP-compliant URIs in its QRcodes, as does its iPhone app. They are of the form bitcoin://address not bitcoin:address.
I asked Ben to fix this (social networks don't parse QRcodes after all), but after explaining that social networks don't parse URLs without :// in them, he stopped responding to my emails. So I've gone ahead and added support for reading these types of URLs to bitcoinj, in the interests of "just works" interoperability. This mail is just a heads up in case anyone else wants to do the same thing. Hopefully at some point, Ben will stop generating such QRcodes and we can remove these hacks and get back to BIP compliance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
