why should it be increasing regularly ? multiplying by 0.33 is dividing the rate by 3 which is a huge decrease, while multiplying by 1.66 is still a "reasonnable" increase. Futhermore, the patch has other ways to make the level easier (as decreasing the size of armies when attacking) which I think is the way to go instead of further reducing the gather rates. But I would say that the minimum I was expecting when implementing this new level that you asked for would be that you test it and give argumented impressions about the difficulty instead of repeating the same sentence about regular intervals in trac and here.

There is not ramming attack yet, naval battles are not full implemented

Ignoring most of your post, but I have to answer to this part: Commits including code you contributed (full listing): r15150, r15677, r15699, r15868. There are some patches on trac that were applied (and are in the above listing), or they did get a review and weren't improved and thus aren't going anywhere, or the ticket was just invalid. Yes, commits can be reverted, but patches can be improved before they are committed and as can be seen you didn't do that. Code contributions (patches) say more than long forum posts and judging from yours your demand for source access, the demand for getting an answer in less than 8 hours, and the above rant some 3 months later is presumptuous at best.

O dear. ..citizen soldiers just stand around, cannot work/gather. Feels annoying, whole eco done by women. Is this your vision of historical correctness? The citizen soldiers are one of the greatest features of 0ad. Changing this is a shot in the knee, imho.

It's not even been 24 hours and you've already run out of patience? To me that says enough about whether or not someone should get commit access. You're welcome to participate in the development of 0 A.D. on the same grounds as everyone else: if you're not part of the team you can still be a part of discussions and submit changes as patches, but don't have commit access to SVN.
