Glest Community Development Monthly - Issue 24

[hailstone]

Welcome to the twenty-fourth issue of Glest Community Development. Below you will find events I have recorded over the last month from the forum (usually for things that can be downloaded or a screenshot of progress), GAE SVN, and bug tracker. Thanks go to the people who have been busy improving Glest with patches, mods and providing support.

The winner of the Glest Community Awards for November 2009 is ... to be announced.

NOTE: the dates are only approximations. Please post any corrections, suggestions, or additions.

The next issue is scheduled for 11 January 2010.

Forgot somethin'.

Yesterday: -Archmage- releases  Magitech-Refit 0.6 -BETA
(You also missed the 0.5 release)

PS: May want to un-sticky the old one, and sticky this one.

[hailstone]

I missed it cause they were spread over 3 posts each: changelog, announcing you are going to release, then an announcement of the release. It would be easier for me if you made one post with the changelog, download link, any screenshots, credits and clearly mark that it is a release.

And on a related matter, please don't triple post and stay on topic. I look at every post (even if I may not read it thoroughly) and you are a big offender of these two things.

If you want to discuss this further a new topic can be created.

[-Archmage-]

I make the change-log on a new post so that I can link to it from other places, and not have clutter with it in the same post.

I announced that I was going to make a new release, a little while after that, I created the change-log, and then I did that stuff that I wrote in the change-log, and then I announced that I had released it.
Really, what is wrong with that?!? It really doesn't matter it I post mutliple times and nobody posts in between those posts.

[John.d.h]

I'm only on there twice?  Dang, I need to get to work.

[-Archmage-]

Yea, finish DM and you'll be all over that list!

You could be worse off... Hmm, I need to do some more stuff. Then again, I had a bit of a lapse, and just today unleashed the next version of the GG, the improved scenario creator, and my version of the shadow walker unit. Too late, but oh well, that means next month I'll have a few appearances.

Thanks once again for this.
