From c5d28ba9c051a249fa3172cbd4676c180dc70793 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: xmr-eric Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2017 00:29:50 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Switch Core with GUI in README.md, fix headings Recently the GUI repo had its name changed from monero-core to monero-gui. This PR updates the build instructions and elsewhere with the new repo name and link. This PR also seeks to put the heading capitalization policy inline with the main Monero readme. Capitalizing every single word in a heading begins to feel redundant and cumbersome when headings become long (and many are indeed quite long). A much better practice is capitalizing just the initial word.

It is open source and completely free to use without restrictions, except for those specified in the license agreement below. There are no restrictions on anyone creating an alternative implementation of Monero that uses the protocol and network in a compatible manner. As with many development projects, the repository on Github is considered to be the "staging" area for the latest changes. Before changes are merged into that branch on the main repository, they are tested by individual developers in their own branches, submitted as a pull request, and then subsequently tested by contributors who focus on testing and code reviews. That having been said, the repository should be carefully considered before using it in a production environment, unless there is a patch in the repository for a particular show-stopping issue you are experiencing. It is generally a better idea to use a tagged release for stability. -## Supporting the Project +## Supporting the project Monero development can be supported directly through donations. -Both Monero and Bitcoin donations can be made to donate.getmonero.org if using a client that supports the [OpenAlias](https://openalias.org) standard +Both Monero and Bitcoin donations can be made to **donate.getmonero.org** if using a client that supports the [OpenAlias](https://openalias.org) standard.
