Planning updates of p2pool

if, 26 Sep 2013
Developer's blog

New p2pool release is planned for this weekend. It will start an independent shares chain due to some incompatible changes.

Fee for coinbase isn’t required since 20 Sep 2013, so this code will be removed;
ECDSA signature isn’t required for PoW blocks since 20 Sep 2013. This allows us to remove a few serious limitations, such as requirements for public node fee and wallet unlocking;
-a option support, wallet address as worker name support;
No truncation for rewards lower than 0.01 coin;
15s shares target spacing.

Successfully ported to ARM, so now you can build novacoind & novacoin-qt for Linux/ARM just like you do it for Linux on x86 platforms.
