Aleksi, Timothy, Some of the Wesnoth developers have expressed some concerns to me about the status of Wesnoth music development.
It seems that some people have attempted to contribute music tracks to Wesnoth, by posting them on the Wesnoth music forums. However, though their tracks were thought to be high quality by a certain measure of opinions, neither of you have approved or commented on the tracks. Since you are currently seen as being the 'gate keepers' of music, this has made contributors frustrated, because it seems unclear how they can possibly have their contributions used, regardless of its quality. Both of you have made valued contributions to Wesnoth in the past. However, it is inevitable that in any project, people will lose interest, or become too busy to continue contributing. In such a case, it is important to us to transition responsibility to 'new blood' that is still enthusiastic. So, I would like to ask each of you: do you still want to be the lead music developers? Do you still want to vet music contributions and decide what is added to Wesnoth? Or, would you prefer to hand over this responsibility to someone else? If you still want to be involved in deciding music contributions, then we need to decide a way for you to review submissions and give contributors a response regarding the acceptability of their music. Your answer is appreciated. David _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
