fatherbushido Posted January 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 Quote I think that there are a couple things to be gleaned from the opening post. First, it seems that the team of fork can commit changes more easily than through WFG, leading to bugs and other issues being fixed. Since these three presumably trust each other well, they are able to work uninhibited, making the overall pace of development considerably faster it seems. All is reviewed. We follow usual dev policies. We have an <10 review queue though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescio Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 The most important difference is that your fork isn't public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You already said that but I am willing to hear it again. At first, I would say that everything is private before becoming public. Then I don't know how to understand the comment and I don't want to misinterpret it. I just started to answer publicly to previous questions. If there is some kind of defiance against the fork, I can fully understand it. But objectively, why being defiant against a project without any means, loot, structure with people who renounced to any kind of power? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm aware I'm repeating myself, though it's still true. There is nothing wrong with being private per se. And no, there is nothing wrong with forking either, it's one of the beauties of open source development. You can do whatever you like, it's completely up to you. For the rest of the world, though, the only thing that matters is what's published. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Fork AD things are already public. For example, the screenshots are true screenshots :-) With the first release, the code will be released! I guessed you wasn't sarcastic with your comment else you would have invited me to read L'Arlésienne. Edited January 15, 2020 by fatherbushido EDIT: we choosed the hard way!

Thorfinn the Shallow Minded Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Well, improvements of this sort are all well and good, but I think that the real thing we need to learn about is when Byzantium will be featured since you can't have forks without that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salut Dakara ! oui c'est jouable mais on n'a pas encore fait de version complétement publique. J'espère que ça arrivera bientôt ! Si tu as des questions ou des requêtes, n'hésitent pas. Yes it's playable. We haven't yet done a public release though. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
