Hi there,

Just wanted to let you know, that since yesterday new builds of the 
master branch playable on CDO will allow you (the developers) to enter 
Wizard Mode. To be precise: Everybody with access level "developer" & 
above in Mantis have their games started with the "-wizard" parameter, 
which Jude implemented recently - provided that the Mantis account and 
the DGL account on CDO have exactly the same spelling. For some of you 
this is either not the case or you don't have a DGL account on CDO yet. 
Namely:

- caotto
- enne
- Matthew Cline (DGL doesn't allow spaces in account names)
- Mu

Mail me your account name and I will set the flag, that allows to enter 
Wizard Mode, manually.


Additionally, I have enabled access to the tutorials on CDO. This 
functionality disappeared when the CTRL+T shortcut from the race/class 
selection screen was removed. It's a separate selection (TT) in the DGL 
menu, but it shares save-games with the normal game. By the way, how 
about enabling access to the hinted game-mode, too, when starting crawl 
with the "-tutorial" parameter? Currently those are not available on CDO.


Most of you have probably read on the Wordpress that the dedicated forum 
for Stone Soup was recently moved to CDO [1] because there were some 
issues with the one on freeforums.org [2]. It's called "the Tavern" now. 
Danr continues doing the administration of forum and the moderation of 
posts (with help from others), while I am doing code maintenance. 
Interesting facts: Hits on the website have trippled to 1.5 million per 
month!


A few months back I managed to automate the building process for builds 
running on CDO & MinGW32. This is the current schedule for builds:
- CDO: every Monday and Saturday at 6:50 (UTC+1)
- MinGW32: every Monday, Thursday, Saturday at 6:20 (UTC+1) (Console 
ZIP, Tiles ZIP & Installer, which contains both versions)


Also, I've recently setup RSS feeds [3] for all those builds (and the 
MacOSX builds uploaded), in case you like to be informed automatically.


I'd like you say again that you are all doing an awesome job with my 
favorite game! And.. please.. release 0.8 already! :D

Cheers!
