MaidSafe Pre-Dev-Update Update :safe: 25th April 2016

The definition of MVP has changed since people started talking about it. Originally we thought this test client was the MVP. Then it changed to become a bigger beast to justify that title (which I think was fair as the test client didn’t do most of the cool stuff that would qualify it as a viable ‘safenet’ product). I don’t think that’s the fault of any traders or trolls, I’ve never heard anything over-inflated or hyped up lies, it just depends what posts you read and who was talking about ‘MVP’ at the time. I think that confusion came from maidsafe and was only corrected post test client launch. No biggie, but I think the confusion has been quite understandable and unmalicious.

You said it very well, I brought this up in a previous update, definitely MaidSafe failed in that aspect, of defining what MVP meant.

I hope on future releases they better define the releases.

@Powersign

Can we clarify what MVP means?

Are we calling the weekly releases the MVP?

Or are we calling the official release 1.0 the MVP? (and if so what features will it have)

Or is the MVP when all the basic features are finally implemented? (safecoin, messaging, etc)

I think there’s been some unnoticed confusion using the term “MVP” and what context it’s being used in.
