We're debating the descriptions on the thread. I provided rewritten
descriptions that try and keep with the theme per client goal, whilst
being less technical.
I think it's unclear how best to run this page. It's clear we need one
though. If everyone can just submit whatever they like then we'll

This is just wrong. While Bitcoin-Qt is by far the best client, it is

What computer is the initial start time 24-hours+ now? On normal
systems initial sync-up now takes a couple hours.
OK, I haven't tried a full block chain sync for a while. If it's only a
couple of hours that's great. Let's change that.
Bitcoin-qt is translated into a pretty broad set of languages (now— I
cant tell you how many of them are _good_). Listing language just
under multibit makes it sound like a distinguishing characteristic.
Fair enough then, let's take that out.
Btw, I sent updated text to Genjix Armory. I hope that gets included or
reviewed.
And I agree about the $4k donations thing. That's complete immaterial for
this page. Though the rest of the description there is reasonable, and
might even be better than what I sent Genjix.

This is purely subjective. One's best is another's worst.
These are both things which are particular
suitable to clear objective enumeration.

and libraries, please just stick to a table of

the right path is probably the middle one - have some descriptions that try
to be neutral
Do it in two parts...
- overview, history, architecture model, 'whys'.
- agnostic table of features, platforms, stats, protocols,

That puts the sender in 'to' and list in 'cc',
which dupes to the sender and eventually
blows out the to and cc lines as everyone
chimes in and doesn't trim. 'reply to' solves
most of that. assuming the list sw can do it.

This is like the most annoying thing about email. Often with group emails,
we'll be having a conversation then someone will click reply instead of group

I'm all for sorting the clients by ease of use. We want the smoothest

defaulting Armory to a standard
Too technical if you ask me. We want a webpage for the dumbest end-user

I'm not sure what designed for occasional use means. Many users of
other clients use them exclusively without touching other clients. Armory
is designed to be your only wallet (if bitcoind[d/-qt] is running in bkgd).
I'm sure the other clients are the same.
Instead, I think that line would be
Alan, apologies about the installer - I was just using your website info to

I think it's perfectly reasonable to debate ordering. I personally don't
think Armory should be up front, because it's not intended for beginners.
How's that for honesty? I don't think anyone is trying to game the system

Personally, all this seems far too focused on a centralized website
(bitcoin.org), and presents far too many choices at once to the user.
