[CF-Devel] (Fwd) Crossfire

[Michael Toennies]

Hi

Hm, lets wait for the CF 1.0 version and then we put it on mpogd
     
     http://www.mpogd.com/
     
     

or other similiar site. This will boost the game like hell.
I know the sites there and the games, and i know how CF is
rated there. If you then calculate the possible amount of new players
- i tell you it will alot!

But for this, we really should have
- CF Server 1.0
- Crossfire for linux 1.0(= client)
- Crossfire for windows 1.0 (= my client)
- Crossfire Editor 1.0 (for what systems???)

I think we should have
- same name for same tool (that means the clients)
- same version number for whole packet.

Well, and a cross platform editor.
Still the old question: In java or other language?
And who will do it?

       At least the real time page is there.  I think the other pages are out of
     
     date.

If no one else volunteers, I can do this.
