In my opinion the fixes for S2_1 that I have encountered recently are all rather minor and could wait for later; I am still more focused on working on the editor. What might be nice is to release 2.1.5 so it can be used for the first 2.1.x longturn game (which will probably start in a week or two), which will give some good testing data and should find more bugs. I don't know much at all about the gcc bug (actually I had 4.3 installed a while ago, but since I had some problems not just with freeciv I am now using 3.4.6). Since I don't know how much hassle it is to make a full release for freeciv I would tend to support more releases more often. Since then the program can be advertised on various sites and users can have the feeling that progress is being made. ;) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ファンのためにやりましょう！ _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
