bitcoin was your first introduction to git?
< kanzure>
... doing other tasks, making this an excellent chance for you to get feedback from me on basic contributions to Bitcoin Core. Hopefully this will help you streamline submissions to Core, please let me know how I can help and I'm also offering some promises/commitments (see below)."
< kanzure>
i would start the PR text with something like: "I opened this PR so that newcomers to the Bitcoin Core project could make simple changes to get familiar with contributing to Bitcoin Core. I have marked a number of TODO comments in the source code of this pull request. The changes listed here are not critical to the project but they are good introductory material. Each TODO is relatively simple, and more experienced developers are busy ...
< kanzure>
one other minor point of feedback is that if you want to attract novices to your pull request, saying "Probably nobody with bitcoin development experience will think this is a priority. I don't either." will not make it clear to novices that you think these changes are good or worth doing at all :)

gmaxwell: ah, reimplementing bitcoin-tx as an rpc? ;)
< gmaxwell>
positional arguments are sadness. but the json style of arguments is sadness squared. Thats a place where I think bitcoin-cli translating unix style arguments to json might be OK, as long as it was done consistently so someone could just learn the cli to rpc mapping.
< gmaxwell>
it bothers me that rawtxn are trivially distinguishable from txn created by bitcoin core itself for no good reason... and it's weird that there is _less_ functionality via rawtxn now.
