@timcliff The most things are in the whitepaper or discussion, not realy in the development. Most things will still take months, if I see the development speed.

Since I really missed the Emoji (Smiley) Button, I have written a Chrome and Firefox plugin for that. That was not a such work.

I think when I come from the holidays I make a pull request directly to the repo. that costs really only a maximum of 2 hours. Maybe, they integrate it. If you do not want to wait so long, you can install my plugin so long. Its easy to find, just search for Steemoji.
