00:47:44 <gingeropolous> the monero-gui just uses monero-wallet-rpc as its backend, right?
00:50:10 <plowsof> Not exactly. Wallet2 api (no wallet-rpc is ever started) 
00:51:30 <gingeropolous> ah ok. but it doesn't involve monerod. 
00:53:56 <gingeropolous> trying to help preland with that bounty... i see you on the thread too :)
11:22:15 <plowsof> gingeropolous the original PR for adding i2p here, i2pzero is used which requires java so alot more moving parts, i2pd should be a drop in replacement https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/pull/2418/files dsc the only reason he stopped was because users would have to wait for several minutes for i2p to connect, but if they want to use it,
11:22:15 <plowsof> that seems fine, maybe dsc would pick it up again now with i2pd? with the SAM stuff as an optional feature later.
11:24:00 <plowsof> monerod-gui can manage a local moenrod though - starts/stops/restarts it . the p2pool integration will restart monerod if the required flags are not in use
11:43:27 <gingeropolous> well dsc better hop on it quick before that bounty is achieved
