It might not be of any use to this discussion, but another open-source project whose primary user group is gamers and handles things pretty well is Dolphin Emulator. While their releases are few and far between, and users are recommended to use development builds, there's never really an issue of b...

How does it address the resulting visitors to our site wondering why they were told elsewhere that we are released, when we are not actually released? Let me think, the RC1 after 0.41? There is not even a single open source project having such a problem with proper naming convenctions , or maybe yo...

If it works now probably is a soft fail on the gmail end, it may happen sometimes.

[The private PPA thing is not my suggestion, but it is a strategy to prevent confusion when release packages are pushed through to end users before our release announcement is made. Confusion which can be avoided with naming conventions, as I suggested. Nobody is going to confuse 0.41-RC1 with the ...

@swick, @darkbasic, I'm sorry but you guys are completely wrong. Maybe it's because you don't have any involvement in our release process. None of what you are suggesting will help solve any of the problems we are having. Then what I fail to understand is what are the problems you're currenctly fac...

as well as an unavoidable backlash from the community from people who don't understand the reasons for this, or who choose not to understand because they want access to stuff they shouldn't have access too (probably because they are using it for social media points) is just going to be a mess for u...

Already thought about this and it will happen eventually, but there is still going to be a private PPA. So testers get their openmw-beta, which I have been doing by hand anyway but now we can get more coverage. The Private PPA will host the finalized package that awaits to be copied over to the pub...

To be clear, this is purely for release and internal kitchen stuff. Conversation around the lead up to the release itself will always be public, so bug-fixes, testing and RC builds will be made available. Someone previously talked about testing RCs in the secret area, which makes no sense. There ar...

Honestly the only thing we need to keep "secret" is the links to the youtube videos, changelog, RC packages, and if possible (poor psi29a!) keep the PPAs from updating before we are ready. All the discussion could be public, it's just those things that need to be kept under wraps. That's ...

- why are they wasting their time when there's already MSGO/MGE/etc? Because Morrowind doesn't run on Linux. Linux runs on more than just Intel (x86[-64]) processors, so wine isn't a solution. Ever try to run Morrowind on your ARM-based netbook or tablet? That's why. Having a FOSS implementation is...
