We'll gather right after Ryan Szrama's talk about the Next Steps for Drupal Commerce in room B104 to talk about Bitcoin and Drupal, and what the next steps are to empower Drupal to integrate better with Bitcoin, and other Cryptocurrencies such as Litecoin, Feathercoin, Freicoin and others.

I'm working on a new module, Coin, to handle the connection between the bitcoin and litecoin daemons. I'm also close to releasing Coin Addrress (coin_addr), which holds Bitcoin and Litecoin addresses as a Drupal 7 field, and is the next release to the already released Bitcoin Address. It will also be good to talk about the future of UC Bitcoin and Commerce Bitcoin, or what I hope will be known as Commerce Coin and UC Coin.

I'll be just back from the Bitcoin Conference in San Jose the weekend before and likely have a lot of news to share from that as well.

We also need to figure out how to integrate with Payments module and currency conversions and see if we want to use the existing libraries and modules that do this for traditional currencies. I'd like to see a Mt. Gox module that queries the Mt. Gox API for the latest exchange rates.

If you can't make the event in person, I've set up a Google hang out for this event, the first 8 people who sign up will be able to connect in. See the link above to join this event. If you'll be there in person or if you're planning to join on line, please also "Sign Up" for this event.

Hi Darrell, et al,

I've begun adding GitHub collaborators to the upstream library bitcoin-php. If that's still in the roadmap for uc_bitcoin, please submit an issue there and I'll add you and/or your designate(s).

Peace,
