  The irc mailing list is most useful to ask quick opinions/questions (how do I 
do this, what do you think of this idea, what do you think of this graphic).

  The mailing list must still be used to mention 'big' changes to the code.  the 
definition of 'big' is of course a matter of opinion.  But there are probably 
lots of people who read the mailing list and can provide input than those that 
are on irc.

  It looks like you can also grab tarballs of all of the crossfire stuff at:
     
     http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/crossfire-cvsroot.tar.gz
     
     

  Note this is the _complete_ tarball of everything - maps, server, client, 
editor, as well as histories and so on.  As such, it comes in at 110 MB.
