[Freeorion-programmers] Upcoming FO development "schedule"

[Zach L. <wha...@gm...>]

Geoff asked me what my development plans were recently, and I
responded in private.  After thinking about this a bit, I figured more
people might be interested, so here's what I told him:

Well, right now I'm working on GG pretty heavily.  After that, I'll be
making pretty broad changes to FO to make it work with the GG API
changes.  My ultimate goal in all of this is to have a GG dialog
designer finished, and then to design a FO data builder, in which
people can create techs, effects, buildings, and related things
without writing XML.  After all that, I'll be going through the
massive number of small improvements I put off for FO until after 0.3,
and after that I'll start work on integration of a 3D engine.  By this
time, I hope we'll be ready to start on 0.4 coding.  So for some time
to come, I won't need much support at all.

Something I left out of this, is that obviously I'll be working on
bugfixes to the current FO code while I'm doing all of the above.
