Please vote for @intelliwitness as a steem blockchain witness.....
What is @intelliwitness and how, and why is it important to vote?
- An article I wrote that explains it (with screen snapshots) is at this link.
We've been getting excited to run the next release of steem, which is coming before Steemit Velocity 0.20 which is known as Steem v0.19.4
It is an upgrade of the 0.19.2 "Steem Equality" release branch. Containing more things that may not be visible to users via the UI interface. However, as a witness node, we see a definite need for these changes that are coming soon.
One of these we're happy to see go is this one:
Removed login_api
The login_api was designed as a way to map the API names to numeric ids. Because the APIs are no longer called via id, there is now no need for the login_api, and so it has been removed.
To the layman, this problem doesn't mean anything significant. However not using numeric ID's makes developers work that much easier. Requiring apps to do the work of mapping or resolving id numbers to names causes extra work for each app to do and is unnecessary. This is a very valuable change.
We also like the new logging changes in the config file:
The logging config has always been a sore spot in the config file because of the number of options available. It was so complex that it required a different parser. We have changed to using a json format
Every system administrator knows, good logging is the core to running a successful server. It's the most important tool used to find out what is going on. :)
We also think that upgrading to 0.19.4 is the way to go BEFORE 0.20 Velocity is released. It's smart to get these smaller, but very important issues out of the way.
We're excited to see release 0.19.4 and run with that in production mode very soon.
More updates to come.

Each time someone uses their account to vote for witness, we get alerted. Thank you to those people who have already done it. We're very, very, appreciative of each vote we get... It doesn't matter how big or small your account is.. every bit helps.
I see I already voted for you. Thanks for your efforts
Yes, thank you very much :)
now you will be upset again but i do have questions....i voted for you the first time you made this post....now i went again on the same voting page and i see that i have 30 votes again...so i just voted for you again...
...why is that happening??....do i have to vote for you every now and then???
...i thought you vote once and that vote counts for ever... :(
If you did it right, after your vote makes into the blockchain and is approved it will show you voted for that witness successfully on that steemd website page
If you don't follow this exact procedure, you will still see a green upvote when logged in via your posting key, and it makes you think you upvoted the witness. But you really didn't. It is when you actually use your ACTIVE KEY in step 4 that it actually works.
I know it is confusing...
Once you vote for a witness successfully, it says voted until you remove it.
...another way to see who has successfully voted for someone, is look at anyone's steemd.com page here:
https://steemit.com/@funnel (replace funnel with any steemit username)
On the left side margin on the bottom it will say who you are currently voting for....
ok...now i think is ok.... i can see my nick says approve witness intelliwitness..... thanks!!!
Okay I'll include this steps in teaching my followers and friends on my new post to come
Looking at https://steemd.com/@intelliwitness
I see you "approved intelliwitness"
...then...
"unapproved intelliwitness"
Please try again, and don't hit it the upvote more than once.
Hi @intelliguy. FYI, the 19.4 version (AppBase) is still technically a release candidate, which means it could have bugs. That is why most (possibly all) witnesses are not running it in production yet.
It is probably best to continue using the “stable” branch until “19.4” is turned into an official release (which should hopefully be soon).
Yes, I am not running it quite yet, but I am eager. :) Thanks for the note.
Double confirmed. :)

Do not ask for follows. It get annoying when hundreds of users keep doing that...
