Is it on Github or something?
2.5 min block times is not a problem.
Main problem for P2Pool is that coinbase need split some part of payout to founder.
So part of code that create coinbase need āsomeā adjustments.
It can be easily tested if testnet have same principles.
As far I remember there was similar thing in Peercoin and it was totally not compatible witch P2Pool.
Looking what is going on on scam mops pools, we need P2Pool and separate miners. ASAP.

Iām partway through adding Zcash support to P2Pool. Hopefully over the next week or so Iāll make enough progress that we can start a testnet P2Pool chain soon.

Update: I now have P2Pool running with zcashd! It doesnāt work yet, but it doesnāt crash immediately on start either

Iāll watch this thread! Good that at least someone is working on Zcash p2pool fork. 
p.s. is it possible to modify zcashd to send 2% to Zcash devs, not 20%?..
yes everything is possible. but the network would not accept such blocks. so this would ba a hardfork and not make any sense.
No itās not possible. The 20% founderās reward is part of the consensus
protocol. If you donāt include it your block wonāt be valid.
We need a get block template miner so we can individually mine to our wallets
Totally agree. )
2all: so let it be a hardfork maybe? A little PR, a couple of threads somewhere, and probably there will be a success? )
is it in github? I havenāt see any change of your p2pool fork

Nothing on github about equihash p2pool or stratum nomp implementation! Itās classified! 
updates can be found here: ( 3 of 4 points seem to be doneā¦ )
That doesnāt reflect any code changes to the base as far as I can see. Str4d is probably really busy atm but i am also interested in the updates needed to get zcash working on a pool. Perhaps I am missing some commits somewhere.
Iām working on unomp port to zcash, but I am not as familiar with the zcash blockheader structure as str4d. I do know a bit bout it though so Iām giving it a shot. Also unomp isnāt being developed anymore so Iāll focus on the python p2ppool
The commits are currently local, and now that 1.0.3 is out Iām back working on them now
Iād be much more inclined to push my unfinished work if I had any confidence that people wouldnāt automatically assume it was fully-working and start a potentially-incompatible P2Pool chain

Could you please share your branch?
str4d any news about p2pool?
it would be nice to have p2pool implementation for zcash ā¦ there is a growing number of small pools that coming out and i believe that all of these will be very happy to have p2pool working!!
Iāll have another stab at this once 1.0.4 is out

Has there been any p2pool progress in the past few months? Is this project still open to development?
