FYI... - Forwarded message from Rich Bowen rbo...@geek.net - From: Rich Bowen rbo...@geek.net Subject: SourceForge weekly featured projects: July 16, 2012 To: sfcommunity communityt...@sourceforge.net Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2012 10:16:49 -0400 Hi, Rich Bowen here from SourceForge. I'm terribly sorry for the late notice. I was on vacation last week in sunny Florida, and so am still catching up. I wanted to let you know that your project is featured on the front page of SourceForge.net this week. Our statistics indicate that being featured on the front page results in about a 20% increase in downloads for a project, on average, so you might start seeing a little extra traffic to your project in the coming week. This would be a good time to check your project summary page, and make sure that it's up to date, has the latest icon, project description, and so on. I also realize that some of you are involved in more than one project, so I've included the list of featured projects below, so you know which one I'm talking about, and what company you'll be keeping on the front page. Thanks for being part of the SourceForge community, and please don't hesitate to contact me if there's anything at all that I can do to help you with your project, community, tools, or whatever. And if you'd like to do an interview for the blog (podcast or email are fine) please let me know that, too. Thanks again!

[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #3320] Add ai type argument to Lua edit.create_player()
Update of patch #3320 (project freeciv): Status: Ready For Test = Done Open/Closed:Open = Closed ___ Follow-up Comment #8: Replying to an old comment: Making script able to request certain ai module to be used creates another situation similar to tileset/ruleset interdependencies that are considered buggy to some extend at least. Gotta remember that Lua scripts don't always have to be fully general and ruleset-agnostic (although any scripts *we* write probably should be). Scripts can be attached to a ruleset or scenario, in which case hardcoded things like find.terrain(Forest) are entirely appropriate. Admittedly I'm less sure exactly when you'd use this ai_type argument -- IIRC what made me think of it (other than generality) was the idea that when testing new AIs, you might write a script to give reproducible results or specific scenarios with finer control than server commands or the editor give you. Anyway, committed now. I'll add a warning when I get round to updating the wiki http://freeciv.wikia.com/wiki/Events_Reference_Manual for 2.4. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/patch/?3320 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
[Freeciv-Dev] [task #7599] Windows packages for 2.4.0-beta1 (placeholder)
Follow-up Comment #6, task #7599 (project freeciv): I'm (now) inclined to agree -- let's plan for Gtk2 on Windows for now. (Would be good to build a Windows Gtk3 client sometime during the 2.4 cycle just so we're not going into it cold with 2.5, but it can wait until Gtk3 libraries actually exist :) ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/task/?7599 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #3379] Fixes to Freeciv gtk3-client theme
Follow-up Comment #1, patch #3379 (project freeciv): The Gtk3 theme seems very chunky compared to Gtk2 -- my Gtk3 machine is a netbook, so it's very noticeable there. Big scrollbars, big button borders, etc. Is this intentional?

[Freeciv-Dev] [task #7599] Windows packages for 2.4.0-beta1 (placeholder)
Follow-up Comment #7, task #7599 (project freeciv): So, point 1 is slain. Point 2, cazfi has since ported the installer scripts to S2_4 and tested them. New one: 7. Optional dependency: MagickWand http://www.imagemagick.org/script/magick-wand.php, for saving map images. (Without this it'll only be possible to save PPM files, which aren't immediately useful to most Windows users.) Don't know how awkward this is going to be to include. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/task/?7599 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
