My own BitShares TESTNET witness node is now running on one of my brand new, expanded, servers along side with Steem, Whaleshares and BitShares.
Please Help Test
Everyone, please try to help out with testing these fixes. Some can be easily verified by using the web client or desktop app and selecting one of the two TESTNET servers. You will require a new account aside from your original account on the main network for this.
A few others may require the usage of the CLI wallet that can be compiled from source on various systems.
Mainnet release will be published after test is done, estimated date is around Tue, 12 June.
