Re: [free-software-melb] bitcoin in Melbourne

2014-05-16 Thread Brian May
Just saw this article.

Of course, supporting Bitcoin means more then just having a POS that
supports it. e.g. need to train staff, work out any legal issues, etc.

Wonder what companies here, if any, use Toshiba's POS systems.

Have been pointed to http://coinmap.org/ which gets its data from
openstreetmap.

Looks like just what I was looking for.
