Namecoin <-> BTC Exchange

I've written an exchange to allow buying and selling namecoins for bitcoins. it's in development but works and I'm opening it up for wider use to get more feedback and find/fix bugs. If you want to try trading your namecoins on the exchange, you can go to
https://exchange.bitparking.com and try it out. If you hit any problems, or have other feedback, let me know here or to doublec in the IRC channel #namecoin.

Very nice, I've been waiting for this. I'll probably hold off using it until you announce a stable release though.

Good idea, I've added this. It shows 'Waiting' if nothing has been received and "Pending deposit of xx" if it has received 0 confirmations.

It's ok to post it anywhere. I posted it to
the bitcoin forums a couple of hours ago.

I've just signed up to your trading site, Doublec, and placed a link to it from the forum I am on
Judging by sales made, it looks like the exchange rate is 200 NMC to 1 BTC at worst. Does NMC sell well (quickly) if you put it up for sale at that sort of price ?
Expect there to be a lot of people moving over to NMC after Monday's difficulty increase on BTC mining.
