Is there any plans to support Maxcoin?

What's maxcoin?

hi slush0
Maxcoin was launch about 3 weeks ago. It uses SHA3 (keccak) to generate the hash...
see here for more information: http://www.maxcoin.co.uk/
also cpuminer was updated to support maxcoin https://github.com/Max-Coin/cpuminer

I did try to use the proxy program but I get only rejects, I guess this proxy is only for double sha256 (bitcoin etc) ??..

I could try to hack your code(?) if you could point me to which files I would need to change?

from cpuminer these files are required sph_keccak.h, sph_types.h, maxcoin.c, keccak.c... Why do I require this, I have an FPGA build that only runs on the getwork system and all the pools are using stratum...

thanks for your time
