Release 2009.2a, Mailinglist and Status update
Hi everyone,
it's time for a short status update on Unknown Horizons development.
Our release has been out for about 2 weeks now and we have had more downloads than ever before and have broken the 1000 downloads on one day mark for the first time ever!
News content:
We have released a 2009.2a version of Unknown Horizons Linux packages which fixes a few bugs in the release. The repository packages have been updated as well. If you are still using the original 2009.2 release, be sure to upgrade.
Mailinglist
We have created an Unknown Horizons mailinglist at http://lists.unknown-horizons.org. The boards have been visited rarely and we think that a mailinglist is a better alternative as you get all the newest posts delivered to your email inbox. We will also be doing more development discussion on the mailinglist to allow people in different timezones and with difficult time schedules to participate on UH development easily. The mailinglists will also act as an archive for important design decisions.
Chances are fairly high that we will be closing down the boards rather soon and move all public discussion to the mailinglist. We currently only have one mailinglist uh-users. This might be split into uh-dev, uh-users and uh-announce at some time in the future, if the mailinglists become adopted widely.
The mailinglist will be a place for users to get help, share ideas and give us feedback on our work, so subscribe now at http://lists.unknown-horizons.org. If you do not want to subscribe, you can read the archive here.
