Farewell

Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I announce that I cease all development and activity in the programming universe indefinitely. My career has reached the turning point I was not expecting for at least another year, leaving me highly off guard and without laid-out plans for this hobby's continuity. I have begun a 5-year residency program in Neurosurgery which is clearly not compatible, time-wise, with programming.

I gave in all my passion for developing, and you gave me back your loyalty and trust, even when I did not deserve that much. Now it is the time for payback. I release all my present and past work as Open Source software, in the hope some talented developer will continue maintaining and expanding my vision of a modern, sleek forum software. The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.

I hereby thank Euan, kawaii, andrewjs18, Ben, Matt, Omar G., effone, Eric J., Devilshakerz, Wildcard, JordanMussi and all the other team members I have had the opportunity to work with when I was a MyBB team member. I thank Tomm M, my mentor, who inspired me to pick up coding with his piece-of-art plugins. And finally, I thank all of you MyBBoost subscribers who have helped me getting through my toughest university years economically.

Yours sincerely, Filippo

A quick update:
- the interface is now able to manage more than one gateway at the same time;
- CoinGate has been tested using their sandbox. I wanted to switch over production, but it seems like they require documents I cannot provide. Therefore, CoinGate's integration will be rolled out within beta 7 but it will not be tested on MyBBoost and will be left on each user's preference whether to try it or not;
- CoinPayments and BitPay also require too many documents which I am not able to produce at the moment. I am currently waiting verification from Blockchain (which does not have an Omnipay integration, so I'd need to build one specifically) and Coinbase (which does have one, and I hope to use that once verified);
- my spare time is getting limited once again due to exams, so don't expect it very soon.

Sneak peek with a slightly modified theme:

What's the state of development at for this project if I may ask @Shade? Hope your exams are doing well :)

I have finished my exams and I am back working on this. The problem is that despite a good advance in its development, new templates are hardcoded into the new theme which I am working on as well. Will probably take some weeks.

What about a gateway for credit cards (Mastercard, Visa, Maestro, ...)

BankPipe is not. I should have fixed all the issues, but successful payments are yet to be tested. Matter of days anyway.
