Monthly Review - April 2004

[Wijitmaker]

The following are the outstanding accomplishments by the 0 A.D. Staff Members for the month of April.

Gustav Larsson & Simon Brenner: For the incredible number of man hours they have clocked up this month revising the Technical Design

Document and programming schedule. Also thanks to Simon for completing the leviathanic task of merging the ScEd graphics code into the engine.

Mark Thompson: For his implementation of our developer code review and backup CVS repositories using cygwin.

Shan Sherrill: For his creation of two masterful desktop images and six new coloured title art images that you can see featured in the history sections of the website.

We are also going to do something new. Every month we'll post the news of the summary of the past month that you could also find in our Community Crier.

Many members this month had unexpected things come up in real life, that took time away from their 'hobby' here at WFG. We also lost several 0 A.D. staff members due to real life issues. We want to thank all of you for the time you commited to the project and hope you can come back soon and join our ranks yet again.
