Thanks for starting that topic on ASC, your understanding of bitcoin is
spot on.  Some of their responses were rather Neanderthal, although I
guess they're so used to being anti-fiat-money that anything short of
gold isn't good enough.  They concede that something is flammable, but
argue that it'll never burn because there'll never be a spark.  Once
it's backed with cash, that might change, but I'd probably better
refrain from mentioning that in public anymore until we're closer to
ready to start.  I think we'll get flooded with newbies and we need to
get ready first.

What we need most right now is website writing.  My writing is not that
great, I'm a much better coder.  Maybe you could create the website on
sourceforge, which is currently blank.  If you can write a FAQ, I can
give you a compilation of my replies to questions in e-mail and forums
for facts and details and ideas.

Codewise, there's not much that's easy right now.  One thing that's
needed is an interface for server side scripting languages such as Java,
Python, PHP, ASP, etc.  Bitcoin would be running on the web server, and
server side script could call it to do transactions.  It's Windows, so I
guess OLE/COM is the interface.

One easy thing that really helps is to run a node that can accept
incoming connections (forward port 8333 on your firewall) to make sure
that new users who try it out have someone to connect to.  If they run
it and get no connections, they'll probably just give up.
