I wonder if there is people lurking on this mailing list wanting to start contributing to freeciv, but don't really know what to work on. We do have some areas where we really would have use for some help. As you can see, we basically would want someone taking active role with each client.
gtk3 migration. Yesterday I copied gtk2-client code as base to start gtk3-client development. gtk3-client is really important thing to do so we will have at least one well maintained client also in the future when gtk2 libraries are no longer available by default, or maybe not at all. But all of the currently active contributors seem to lack either time or other resources to take really active role in this work. I'd like to see someone taking main responsibility for gtk3 migration. More information about our plans are in https://gna.org/task/?7334 and https://gna.org/patch/?2689 I'll add gtk3-client category to task and bug trackers tonight. SDL-client maintainership If we want to keep SDL-client in well maintained state, we really need someone taking active role with it. At the moment biggest single issue is https://gna.org/bugs/?15804 If that is not fixed soon, we have quite useless sdl-client in 2.3 series already. Qt-client development Again, someone should take active role in Qt-client development if we want to see it forward. It was my original intend when I started that client that development should be later given to someone else, but as plan B I could slowly develop it myself. With the new things coming up, I really don't have time to execute that plan B. Qt-client is on hold until someone starts to work with it again. -ML _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
