[Slashem-devel] Release plans (0.0.7E0)

[J. A. H. <al...@av...>]

Hi guys,

With the alpha development phase of Slash'EM Vampire nearing
completion, I thought I would set out my rough plans for how
things might go from here. Naturally, things may change and
mean that this needs to be revised or completely thrown out.


o Next alpha release, version 0.0.7E0, to be released on
Friday 28th March.

Work to be done:

* Finish NetHack 3.4.1 integration (Christian Cooper).
* Finish merging DOS and UNIX source distributions (Ali).


o Final alpha release, version 0.0.7E1, to be released at the
end of May. This release will be publicized much more widely
than previous alpha releases in an attempt to get some real
feedback on the new features.

Work to be done:

* Finish Lethe integration (Darshan Shaligram).
* Implemtation of accepted feature requests.
* Integration of Grund's Stronghold, assuming it is accepted.
* A number of improvements to the GTK interface as detailed on
   my devel page (Ali).


o First beta release, version 0.0.7E2, to be released at the
end of June.

Work to be done:

* Address any issues that have been raised with the new features


How does this sound? Is it achievable - especially the Lethe
integration? Darshan, are there any parts of the Lethe
integreation that can be seperated out so that others can help
you?

Cheers,
