The idea of the client detecting/warning about not-trivial forking seems worthwhile too, though, assuming it doesn't already (AIUI it doesn't). I don't know if there's any automatic monitoring for forks, but if not I would assume that the core devs and/or Bitcoin Foundation would be planning to put some in place. But there's no reason I can see why end users clients should't be warning of such situations, too, when they can (obviously they won't always be aware of the fork). roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
