If this is the same person, then he's blind, and maybe that's why he wrote 'U R L' instead of the usual 'URL', by using speech to text or some other assistive tech. It might be that he tried to fork github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin (http://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) and just provided the wrong link. But regardless, stay away from the one with two Bs in it.

I guess I'll need to register a domain for it an get a page going and link from there. I just haven't gotten around to it but will do that. I'll get going!
