KLYE Witness Update 2017 / 06 / 17
Every week (normally on Friday, a bit behind schedule today!) I try and write a small witness post to keep my fellow STEEM users up to date on what I am currently working on in regards to the projects / coding for the community. This week was almost entirely dedicated to @tippy coding and that project is coming along nicely! Also begun to switch my STEEM server software from version 18 to version 19 in preparation of the hardfork next week!
This Week as STEEM Witness
Tippy Starting to Get Near Completion
While taking me far longer than I'd initially planned pretty pumped to announce that this @Tippy project is starting to come together nicely. Only a few more features left to implement and some testing to be done and the service should see a proper launch. The aim is to have @Tippy going by the end of the month but testing to ensure the service is stable/functioning as intended may push this back. Ensuring the script work flawlessly is the determining factor in launching this service. I'll be writing a manual and posting it on the @Tippy account in the next few days.
Started Upgrading My Servers to 0.19.0
With hardfork 19 just around the corner I've started updating my server / witness software to version 19. Very excited to see how the changes to the software will effect how people vote and how it's accepted within the community. Need to go check on STEEM.GLOBAL and my backup server here shortly. If they are working alright I'll be switching my main witness server over in the next day.

Hey buddy, I came to see what you were up to, I have been thinking of you.
nice post
LOL!!!!!
Have a great week man, I hope we get @KLYE'd this week big time!
(:
I was starting to think you fell off the face of the earth.....well I am glad I was wrong my old and dear friend!
Nah man! Been a fair bit busier these days and spending long hours coding or catching up on sleep.
How goes the battle with you? Read one of your sci-fi chapters a few days back, was a good read.
We're all ready for that hardfork 19 :)
In layman terms what is a hardfork? I've seen it mentioned in a few posts but have no idea what it is.
A change in the protocol who is not retrocompatible with previous versions of the client. Unless you are running a witness node or using the daemon locally it will not affect you.
oh ok thank you for explaining
Wow Tippy sounds like a great idea! Good luck with it, I would definitely utilize a feature like that!
thank you for your post.
Followed and Resteemed
Cool! I appreciate the support and you wanting to follow my blog. :)
What is @Tippy? o_o
A tipbot, with it if you want to tip someone you will only be required to comment some command instead of going to your wallet and fill a complete transfer.
Thanks for letting me know @argih :D
Thanks for answering the question for me!
