Actually, I can't follow you. There is no supported Ubuntu release that can *not* connect to the official servers. Can you please be more specific on which version of wesnoth you are speaking about? While saying that, 1.6 servers might go away upstream wise during the lifetime of lucid. I am willing to provide backports of the later stable releases if that would be acceptable to solve this bug. Actually that would be the only option to provide that because the official server won't even host 1.8 stable release forever, and this will happen again for the subsequent releases. Other than this, I fear the Ubuntu project/Canonical is not able/willing to afford to provide a server that would host network games. So running a server on your own to host network games for older releases is the only option you've got.
