Anything related to PR, release planning and any other non-technical idea how to move the project forward should be discussed here.

It worked out, thankfully, in the end though. With all the publicity, we caught the attention of Bethesda and they were forced to acknowledge OpenMW. It caused Sandstranger a heart-attack or two, but we managed the problem and we still keep the Android port of OpenMW!

That being said, I'm going to try my hand (with help) at crafting an Android build of 0.37 running our OpenMW-Template. We can use that to make screenshots and videos if anyone wants that. :)

I think everyone should give Sandstranger a clap on the back and thanks for sticking to it through thick and thin!

Don't give him the clap! He doesn't deserve that. Give him a pat instead.

Well he will insist on sticking it in through thick and thin. It was bound to happen sooner or later :P

If and when people find time to work on a video for 0.37... could we also include shots and footage of Tamriel Rebuilt from the OpenMW perspective? :)

In the past couple of weeks, I have been communicating more with TR and I asked them if it would be cool if we used TR in some propaganda *promotional* videos about OpenMW. They not only said it was cool by them, they want to work closer together with OpenMW as well.

I figured it would be a win-win, as we would get more testing and eyes on OpenMW from one of the larger and active Morrowind mods and they would get exposure as well. In return they would also encourage the use and testing on OpenMW and not just Morrowind.

I would ask also on their behalf if they could use any videos/screenshots that we made of TR on their site as well. That would also drive traffic in this direction as well.

What do you guys think?
