Welcome!

... I can't use BitPay or the others because I don't want to put my
business at the mercy of another company that can decide they will stop
processing payments just because they don't like something I am doing.

This is exactly the motivation behind libbitcoin. Web APIs are a
centralization force that stand to destroy the Bitcoin security model,
not just for individual users but for all.

This is great. We use a significant amount of code generation in all
repos and will eventually generate Debian packaging. If you can
generalize the CentOS packaging we may be able to incorporate it into
the build at some point as well.

Great to hear, thanks for the feedback.
