Hello and thanks for your positive feedback regarding Freeciv-web. It is
always encouraging to get positive feedback about Freeciv-web.
Submitting Freeciv-web to f-droid.org seems like a good idea, perhaps
someone wants to help with that.

> Do you plan to merge everything to the html5 version and progress only
with it ?

I think that Freeciv needs both a good HTML5 version as well as the
existing desktop clients. For me it is important to listen
to what the users wants, and by having a good HTML5 version it will be
possible to make Freeciv available to a
very large audience of casual gamers on the web. I also think that we in
the Freeciv project can become better
at cooperating on the development of the web and desktop clients with equal
priority.

Freeciv-web has different advantages and different users compared to the
desktop clients. The strengths of Freeciv-web is convenient and
user-friendly access to
playing the game through a browser, tablet or mobile, while I have never
heard of any users of Freeciv-web who actually want to mod the
game while playing in a browser, they just want to play the game in their
browser or tablet for a while. For example, it was interesting to hear
from schools preferring to use Freeciv-web to teach students about social
studies and history.

Regards,
Andreas
