[QUOTE="LetohNereg, post: 1232627, member: 14883"] If you look carefully between the debate posts (normal for any organisation of PCGen's size) you will see that business is as usual. All reported user problems were answered and code fixes made where necessary. If you look at the number of trackers fixed since the last release, a huge amount of work was done: Total issues resolved by group: Doc Monkeys: 51 Code Monkeys: 45 Data Monkeys: 19 OS Monkeys: 6 And the release of a merged PCGen & GMGen product is a very exiting development! The foreground discussion is very improtant to the growth of PCGen and some very valid concerns have been raised. These will be dealt with by the PCGen community over time and the project will continue :) I am the mentioned monkey and I am very serious about documenting all relationships, agreements and licences that the community holds. I am happy that Jeff is still happy to contibute as from his last post privately to me he had indicated he couldn't contribute due to his formation of the Non-profit group. What I need from Jeff is an example of what is required within such a document to satisfy him. I am in disagreement to those who think that CMP board members constitute a conflict of interests. One of my businesses is an Australian based RPG shop. I admit that one of the reasons I participate so heavily within PCGen is so I can find new customers for my shop. This does not stop me from putting lots of hours into the project, but some would say that I have a conflict of interest. Others have similar side issues and reasons for taking part. I don't see that this matters as long as the PCGen community benefits. I have the postion of Documantation Silverback due to the fact that I have and do contribute more to the documentation than anyone else currently does. Eddy Anthony currently is closing that gap with the immense amount of work he has put into the List section of the documentation of late and if he out contributed me consistently and wanted the Silverback postion, I would make a recommendation to the BoD that I be replaced as that would be best for the PCGen community (This is unlikely to happen as Eddy does not currently want the extra reponsibility and time commitment that the SB represents). Eddy is currently the Doc team Second in Charge (and a very good one at theat :) ). I feel that the BoD is representative of the PCGen community and the model of having the biggest contributor who wants to do the administrative stuff in control of the team is much better than having the most charismatic (and maybe less technically able) person sitting in the seat for the power and glory. As GMGen has no real documentation at this stage, I am putting out a call to any PCGen user (or past Documentation Monkeys) to assist and leave your own personal mark within the thing that is PCGen. Email me if interested! It is business as usual at the best RPG Character and GM tools software that is PCGen. We will continue to grow and add user requested features as time rolls along. Happy gaming! :D [/QUOTE]
