Glad to hear it. In the case of legacy, it's not so clear - and with their re-write to C++ code, will be nigh-on impossible, so GPLed heretic/hexen code is the only way out. > The fact that no attempt has been made to contact me, when I'm listed in > the official wiki, and present in the official forums announcing new > release is disturbing.

I'm suitably out of touch that I wasn't aware doomsday was available for GNU/Linux natively, yet - I suppose this is what the ITP process is for. 'Hijack' seems a bit strong - I can't find an ITP from you - do you ever intend to submit your package to debian officially? > In this case no raven code is in the engine, and the doom or heretic > plugins, only the hexen plugin is affected. I'll have to take your word for it on the engine, but surely raven code is in the heretic plugin? -- Jon Dowland http://jon.dowland.name/ PGP fingerprint: 7032F238 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
