Not directly related, but this remembered me that we planned to remove the accounting features on freicoin. We don't want to adapt them for demurrage and we think business shouldn't use it and should code their own accounting system instead. One that keeps a full log of the accounting, etc. Unfortunately the first exchange to support freicoin (cryptonit) used this feature for accounting user balances on the exchange. So the question is, is there any good reason to maintain this? Is any serious business really using this or anyone at all? I'm talking about removing the following rpc calls: getaccount getaddressesbyaccount getbalance getreceivedbyaccount listaccounts listreceivedbyaccount move sendfrom setaccount ...and modifying these: getnewaddress listreceivedbyaddress listtransactions sendmany I think this would also leave a cleaner API, but I'm just interested on what the objections would be to this removal. How crazy does this sound? Should we reconsider their removal for freicoin, proceed or create a pull request for bitcoin? --=20 Jorge Tim=F3n http://freico.in/
