[CF-Devel] Webboard.]

[Michael Toennies]

Hi


Yes, and i think we should do, what we yet do, but more systematic.

Real-time.com is our CF main site - for the game.
And it is pretty large with this.

SouceForge should be for the dev team, and the dev stuff.

We should not mix both, thats confuse most times.
As developer you got an different look to CF as players.

Also, with more players and more dev people, both parts will grow,
and real-time, again, is big and will grow up. With all the changes
to gameplay the tanners have quite a lot to do there (always thanks for
it!).

So, sourceforge as dev site is a good choice for me.
