We're quite busy and we never feel we are truly ready for a release.
However, it might happen pretty soon, I want to expose the full sourcetree.
The last (and only) release contained only "H5" branch, but it should work
on Voodoo3.

You make sure you checked out the branch named "glide-devel-branch".

Great! You can contact me / Koolsmoky / Guillem at the usual SourceForge
addresses. Alternatively, you can post the patches here or any other Glide
mailing list. Please note that there are two ways to get the thing compiled:
the auto* combo (maintained by Guillem) and the plain makefile.linux
(maintained by me) / makefile.win32 (maintained by Koolsmoky).

We're looking forward to hear from you.
