Bootstrap Nodes #20
Description
Migrating this important topic that relates to all Ethereum Classic clients from the go-ethereum the issues section (ethereumproject/go-ethereum#4) to the general volunteering repository.
How you can help
Developers
We need volunteers to build an open source testing tool to easily check the status of the bootstrap nodes and test they are serving proper data. If you are interested in building this coordinate in trello.
System Administrators
We need volunteers to run dedicated nodes to bootstrap clients.
To help us maintain our own network and further limit issues with the ETF chain we need to run our own dedicated bootstrap nodes.
If you can run a dedicated bootstrap node, a node which can stay connected 24/7, typically on servers dedicated to this purpose: please provide the enode, ip address/domain, and port of the node.
Example
enode://a979fb575495b8d6db44f750317d0f4622bf4c2aa3365d6af7c284339968eef29b69ad0dce72a4d8db5ebb4968de0e3bec910127f134779fbcb0cb6d3331163c@52.16.188.185:30303"
Existing Volunteers
If you decide to stop running your node, please notify with a comment to be have your entry removed.
Please take steps to harden the security on your dedicated nodes.

Scripts to automate list generation
Generates a static-nodes.json file with all enode addresses in this github issue.
echo $(echo -n "["; echo $(curl -s 'https://github.com/ethereumproject/volunteer/issues/20' | grep -ioE "enode\://[0-9a-f]{128}@((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\:[0-9]{2,5}" | grep -vE '(@10\.|@172\.(1[6-9]|2[0-9]|3[0-1])\.|@192\.168\.|@0\.0\.0\.0)' | tr -d " " | sed -e 's/^/"/' -e 's/$/",/' -e '$s/,$//' ) ; echo "]") > static-nodes.json
