Open Source developers (people who download the source of the game and code with it) who are not actually part of the Wildfire Games development team will submit patches to us. We'll evaluate them, then add the patches to the game if they are stable and helpful. We even have a task manager system called "Trac" that twe've opened to the public with over a hundred "tickets" (tasks) that Open Sourcers can immediately begin working on if they so wish.
We fully intend to release a completed, full-featured game. Going Open Source is a step that could help us achieve the goal of delivering an enjoyable video game into the hands of our long-suffering fan base. |

| Just wanted to inform you that packagers for openSUSE are notified about this, so openSUSE users can expect repository somewhat soon. |

Currently the game isn't really suitable for packaging for users - there isn't much of a playable game, and the code isn't particularly clean or stable or well-tested, and the idea is primarily to make it available for developers who can compile and debug it themselves. User-friendly packages would be very useful in the future, but for now it seems a bit premature |

| Simply playing around in the editor and modding a few units is really awesome. |
