Yeah, I find IRC inconvenient too (since I do Jabber ;). And I'm not
around on the weeken, so Owen and I will never cross paths. Even just a
post to the mailing list to say "I'm doing this" would do. Are all the
main developers subscribed here?

I've been working on Autotools stuff. The first fruits of that is
available here:

Feedback would be appreciated.

Next I'm going to start looking at just how hard it will be to nicely
abstract the engine, UI and AI away from each other. And I'm going to
start playing it (rather than TTDPatch), and fixing things as I find
them.

Rob.
