So unless you also support something you have not explicitly stated - get rid of bitcoin-qt in its current form, the above does not meet the spirit of Jonas' original post - which makes a load of sense to me. --047d7bfcefead8c9d7051d074d9d Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hey Jonas,

We've discussed this before so I know you prefer your curren= t approach, but I personally would take a slightly different path to reach = the same end:
  1. Support serving of SPV wallets from pruned = storage. This means some protocol upgrades, BIPs, etc. It helps all SPV wal= lets, including on phones.
  2. Then make a bitcoinj based desktop walle= t app, that contains a bundled bitcoind.

It makes a lot of sense to have single set of reference implementation= s for the different components. So unless you also support something you ha= ve not explicitly stated - get rid of bitcoin-qt in its current form, the a= bove does not meet the spirit of Jonas' original post - which makes a l= oad of sense to me.
