[Rails-devel] Rails2.0: (Almost) all of Rails 1.x merged

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

All commits of the Rails 1.x tree are now merged into the Rails2.0 
branch (this makes Rails2.0_merge obsolete and will be deleted soon).

So everyone (and especially the one-and-only Erik) is invited to start 
coding against Rails2.0 from now on.

Major change so far are the revised classes/interfaces of the 
state/model packages (see previous mails).

Current (known) issues soon to be fixed are:
* Undo/Redo in the UI is deactivated
* Some annoyance in the UI that items are referred by the id instead of 
the name (e.g. a train called 3_3 instead of simply 3)
(see next mail on toText() methods)

The only exception are those commits that have been related to the 
started implementation of 1880, before I can merge them I have to get a 
better picture of the requirements, but this will be done soon.

Testing of Rails2.0 in development is already possible by fetching the 
git branch.

I will release a alpha version as soon as I have enabled (or gave up on) 
WebStart support (see separate mail for this).

Further roadmap:
* Start revised Round classes
* Use that to finish 1825
==> Release of Rails2.0
* Add tile lay allowance algorithm
* Support realtime-online play
==> Release of Rails2.1

Other plans (independent of releases)
* Improve ftf-play (no-map mode) with an optimized gui
* Finish 1880 (if not Martin continues his work there)
