Thanks. To get things up and running fast I propose the following procedure: * I create a sticky thread in the moderator forum, called news inbox. * Developers post their news in that thread. * A proofreader fixes the spelling and grammar errors. * The proofreader then copies the fixed entry into the News forum. * A forum administrator then copies the item to the front page. Then we can look at improving the procedure in the future, probably also depending on the amount of news items we post. -- Regards, Mark de Wever aka Mordante/SkeletonCrew _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
