Looks like Kevin was probably trying to point us to his fork for comments: https://github.com/kjsisco/bitcoin/tree/patch-1 -- Jud On Wednesday, April 2, 2014 at 12:45 PM, Laszlo Hanyecz wrote: > Maybe he has a fork on the real github.com (http://github.com) and the link was a mistake. > > http://news.nurse.com/article/20121203/NY02/112030026#.Uzw5UVy2uw8 > > I think it's possible that 'Kevin' is for real and maybe he doesn't realize he linked to a phishing site, if it was an accident. If this is the same person, then he's blind, and maybe that's why he wrote 'U R L' instead of the usual 'URL', by using speech to text or some other assistive tech. It might be that he tried to fork github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin (http://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) and just provided the wrong link. But regardless, stay away from the one with two Bs in it. > > Thanks, > Laszlo > > > On Apr 2, 2014, at 3:59 PM, Kevin wrote: > > > On 4/2/2014 11:45 AM, Ricardo Filipe wrote: > > > Kevin, > > > the thing is you gave us a bad link... what is the correct URL of your project? > > > > > > 2014-04-02 16:30 GMT+01:00 Kevin : > > > > On 4/2/2014 11:13 AM, Laszlo Hanyecz wrote: > > > > > Maybe this site serves up exploits selectively?

That link should work just fine...I'm not sure what the problem is as I know I forked correctly. I guess I'll need to register a domain for it an get a page going and link from there. I just haven't gotten around to it but will do that. I'll get going! Just know that I would never set up fishing; that's not my style. > > > > > > -- > > Kevin > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > _______________________________________________ > Bitcoin-development mailing list > Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net (mailto:Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net) > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development > >
