Hello Steemian friends,

This is a witness log that will give community brief update about my latest project works.

Summary: eSteem releases, SteemPoll development, Translation of eSteem and reward contributors, Witness update...

In-depth

• Over last few weeks, eSteem had major improvements (Scheduled posts, Bandwidth/Traffic saver, etc.) as well as bug fixes. Work on v1.4.6 is underway and thanks to all who is reporting issues, suggestions to our github to further improve the app and their experience. Desktop wallet app and Web wallet apps are in development, soon to be revealed more information on feature set and release. Desktop app development slowed down last week, because I concentrated on SteemPoll, decided to release desktop app step by step only with ready to use features. Hope to do pre-release within few days.

• Published beta improvements of SteemPoll at http://beta.steempoll.net , project is moving better and more focused direction. Thank you for Hive account@andrarchy, Hive account@arhag and many others who is giving their feedback and suggestions on future improvements. Quite excited about where this project is headed...

• Translation of eSteem and future Steem apps - eSteem translations team is growing and different languages are simultaneously being translated. Come and join us if you want to volunteer and help us grow as well as get some reward. Amazed to see well over 160 people contributing translation, proofreading, and over 40 languages are ready to go with next release.

• Witness good-karma running HF18 (0.18.1) and continue producing blocks. I have my backup servers running HF19 for testing purpose. Witness parameters APR set to 0% to help pegging of SBD, price feed bias 0%. Registration fee is 0.3 STEEM due to recent price jump on Steem, will consider lowering it even more soon.
