:) You're welcome!

There are some reasons for it:
1. I didn't know that they need discussion, or if anybody is interested 
in that! ;)
2. I liked to finish this ASAP since I won't have that much free time in 
the following weeks and I should concentrate on other things for awhile.
3. As far as I know, they don't change the functionality of the current 
server. They just provide many features which can be used. At least I 
tried my best to retain 100% compatibility with the past.

Thanks for looking through the changes and testing the build. That's 
really needed.

:) I may do it soon. However, from now on, I'll try to convince you that 
the best thing for now is to port soccer3d updates in the current 
simspark code to simspark (some bug fixes, some new features, and some 
compile fixes) and drop the core libraries (oxygen, kerosin, zeitgeist) 
and then the general plugins (in spark/plugins) from soccer3d repository ;)
Then, regardless of the speed of transition to simspark, there will be 
always one code tree distributed in simspark and soccer3d repositories. 
Porting code from one repository to the other is really undesirable. It 
brings the sense of wasting a lot of time without doing anything new :(. 
Free time worths a lot more! Personally, I'm almost sure that I'll never 
port any new changes from simspark to soccer3d!

And something I forgot, I didn't port anything from simulation/parts to 
soccer3d. Is there anything there that should be ported to soccer3d?

Thanks again,
Hedayat
