Subject: Re: [unSYSTEM] BANK RUN! - P2P Fiat-Bitcoin Exchange
I just created a project development thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=465326.0) intended for open and transparent communication for the development process.

If anybody interested to join/contribute to the project please join there, so we can start working on it.

I am in contact now with about 7 people so lets see how to get the thing rolling...

Topics to discuss:
- Check the overall concept and test it there are open flaws
- Structure the development process
- Design the basic architecture
- Choose the technology to implement
- Funding models
- Organisational structure
- ...

As soon as we have agreed on a project name, I will register a domain and we can setup our own forum/wiki,... there. The thread is just intended for a first start....
I am working on an update for the paper to clearify and address some open questions/issues.

br,
Manfred
