That's Timeout Trees, right? I'm not aware of a non-fork version of Timeout Trees. Do you have a link? The attached article by shinobi says Timeout Trees rely on CTV.
It also says the admin must regularly kick everyone out of the current channel factory and put them in a new one. My design tries to make that optional and atypical rather than required.
It sounds like another main difference is that Timeout Trees would use CTV to allow the admin to open channels for his users noninteractively. My design assumes we don't have CTV, so opening the channels happens during a signing ceremony scheduled by the people who want to enter a coinpool together.
