06:17 <stellar-slack> <veerasarma> ok i will check it

06:18 <stellar-slack> <veerasarma> if there any option to validate the stellar account?

08:15 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Is there any interest in building a general state machine on top of SCP/stellar? Is SCP a partial order Federated Byzantine Paxos like Lambort's Generalized Paxos Consensus? (have't read SCP yet)

08:16 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> I work on open value networks: http://commonsfest.info/en/2015/anichta-diktia-axias/ and we will need something similar to ethereum.

08:17 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Partal order allows for speed improvements since there are a lot of operations that do not depend with each other.

08:18 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Think of a network of open organizations that work together and save their state in stellar.

08:20 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Lambort's work: http://research.microsoft.com/apps/pubs/default.aspx?id=64631

08:20 <stellar-slack> <sacarlson> we have in a sense state machine contracts in stellar that can connect to time and or multi signatures. on the multi signature side I have created primitive witness bots

08:21 <stellar-slack> <sacarlson> your other states you think of might just be other asset holdings in stellar?

08:25 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> No, at the moment I am trying to find ways that distributed servers/organizations could interact and be reliable, in the sense that if one fails, the others can recover. So I think of it more like a database, even though the data will be business/production data.

08:27 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Since we are talking about p2p processes and open organizations, we cannot have the standard Paxos protocols, we need federated Paxos like SCP.

08:27 <stellar-slack> <sacarlson> stellar is just a simple open ledger with multi asset and built in trade system. it's not going to keep track of inventory and other such things that a business might need

08:28 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> I know.

08:30 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> The stellar team has abstracted the SCP protocol in their implementation. Maybe they have interest in building such a thing.

10:19 <stellar-slack> <bartek> @xekoukou je.d can tell you more about it but it's thanksgiving today in USA

16:55 <stellar-slack> <xekoukou> Best tradition that we do not have. Thank you for the great software and thank the native Americans for their thoughtful traditions.
