Why is btc-address part of another module(repo)? Add more functionality?

[offlinehacker]

I like your way of organizing different bitcoin releated stuff into modules, but i wonder why is btc-address part of another modules.

I want to integrate some more functionality, basicly all the funtionality from coinpunk https://github.com/kyledrake/coinpunk/tree/master/lib/bitcoinjs which is using basically the same code.

Is it ok to integrate message.js transaction.js wallet.js and other code into this repo, so all non-crypto releated crypto currency functionality would be in this project?

You bet! This is definitely on the roadmap, I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Want to join the effort?

Yes we could joint the effort. I'm working on a new wallet, but currently i just want to update coinpunk to a state where it becomes managable.

I will use sjcl for cryptographic stuff, because it supports ecc and is currently the most maintained crypto library. It currently lacks ripemd-160 support, but there's implementation, we just have to convince author to merge pull request(this issue request bitwiseshiftleft/sjcl#136)

Well, let @vbuterin or me know if you want to join this Github org. Funny, I think @vbuterin is working on a wallet and I'm working on a wallet too :)

I am not a native js guy but I am willing to learn more and help where I can
Any chance we could get some example documentation using testnet or an alt?

That said I am looking at the cryptojs docs on google code (not to be confused with cryptocoinjs) they look helpful.
