Hello, Blurters
I've had a few days off and I spent a bit of time doing some dev work on Blurt, and this is an update to let you know what I've been up to.
Added Fees and Missed Blocks to Witness Page
I have added two rows to the witness page. One shows how many blocks have been missed by each witness. The other one, which is more important in my opinion, shows the fees that are voted for by each witness.
If you didn't already know, the fees are voted on by the witnesses, and the actual fees are the median of the fees voted by the top 20 witnesses. They vote for the account creation fee, the operation flat fee, and the bandwidth fee.
You can view the code changes here.

Added Count for Remaining Power Downs in Wallet App
If you look at the wallet page and you have a power down in progress, it now displays the number of remaining power downs.

Updated Blurtjs
This update is for developers who write software for Blurt in the Javascript language.
I have updated a lot of things.
Adding account posting or active authority now works correctly. It didn't work at all before.
I've also added the transaction ID in what gets returned when broadcasting a transaction. That way you can easily verify the status of a transaction after broadcasting it.
You can check the commits here if you're interested in knowing what changes I made.
That's All, Folks!
That's it for this quick update.
Until next time, I hope you all have a great one!
Vote for my witness!
I run a witness node on the Blurt blockchain and I would really appreciate your witness vote.
