Merged
Conversation
…rify tag - Startup license banner (LOG_WARNING) now states GNU AGPL-3.0-or-later with an AGPL §13 network-use source offer instead of MIT/X11. - CHANGELOG P2P default port corrected to 9326 mainnet / 19326 testnet to match the code default (was 9338/19338). - README reproducible-build verify example uses release tag v0.14.0-v36-ltc-doge (was v0.1.1-alpha).
The sharechain code is an independent clean-room C++ reimplementation of the P2Pool design. Several comments over-claimed line-level copying of p2pool python source (forest.py/data.py/node.py/skiplist.py line cites, "exact translation", "port of", "replica of", "matching p2pool EXACTLY", verbatim source-line reproduction), which invited an incorrect derivative reading. Reword those to creator-credit framing (independent C++ implementation of the p2pool design; algorithm originally by forrestv) and drop the source line-number citations. Add a Credits section to README crediting Forrest Voight. Comment-only changes; no code changes; AGPL-3.0-or-later headers unchanged. Consensus/wire-compat spec references and Bitcoin Core/Namecoin upstream attributions left untouched.
- add --analytics-id CLI flag (mirrors --dashboard-dir; sets analytics_id, help text) - read cfg["coinbase_text"] and cfg["network_id"] from YAML - CLI takes precedence over YAML via cli_explicit guards (incl. analytics_id)
…tats endpoint - --stratum-min-diff default 0.001 -> 0.0005 (stratum_types.hpp) - --log-max-mb default 50 -> 1000 and clarify it caps total rotated-log size - REST endpoint /sharechain_stats -> /sharechain/stats (actual route)

Pre-release documentation fixes:
src/sharechain/tracker_view.hpp— replace staleMIT License (c2pool project)block-comment line with an AGPL-3.0-or-later note (SPDX header on line 1 was already AGPL; this was a relicense miss).README.md— V37 development — fix two mangled<[text](url)>links; now lists the V37 Purple Paper, the Telegram dev chat, and the v37-dev diff as plain URLs.README.md— new License section — document the AGPL daemon / Apache-2.0 core-engine / MIT btclibs / MIT purple-paper split.CHANGELOG.md— add[0.14.0-v36] - 2026-07-10entry covering the MIT→AGPL relicense and the v36 LTC+DOGE release.
