Hello all I discovered 0 AD maybe on alpha 15 or something like that and played sometime to see how things are going. I'm generaly intrested in free software (even coding for some) and pay particular attention to games since a few years. 0 AD is one of my favorites, as it is ambitious, fully original, and truly alive It's also a study case for project management and business model on free games. I'm now working at a game center in France and try to push free softwares there. I already made a few LAN introducing free games and recently ran one dedicated to 0 AD. We were 8 players and there wasn't even enough unused PC for everyone to play (previous events gathered 3 or 4 people) Even if the game was laggy they all enjoyed the games and are demanding for more (fully aware that 0 AD is still in alpha and performance issues will be addressed on time). I'd love to see a local community of players being built on the long run. I'm trying to "contribute" in some way, I'm relaying some announcements on Diaspora* (in French), "learn" (actually play) the game to be able to introduce it to new players and ease the learning curve. I think I should be more attentive on bug reports, testing an such, as I don't think I'll have much time for coding (I already have too many projects)
