Rocking & Rolling!
Back on track with the weekly newsletter, sent right on time and containing last weeks happenings and thoughts
When I stare out in the future and then turn head slightly and look back -I see our team acting like a big snowball rolling downhill growing and speeding up all the time -enjoying itself as it soak up things.

Subversion: Version control system (SVN)!
Kenneth have finished setting up the version control system on the server and we have uploaded the current IoM build, and the full range of docs and appendixes to it. Kenneth are in full charge of the trunk/branching there and have dealth out the usernames/logins to those in need. So time have finally arrived to code away, and submitting.

Day/Night Timer (GUI)!
Robert submitted the code for making the Day/Night GUI element working. Its now running smoothly, and he is to my knowledge even working on a ver. 2. A new set of graphics will be created at some point, to allow for 18/24 o'clock dot showing.

General News!
Game Server (Titas Ver. 117) is running smoothly and conecting fine to the DB on the box. Work are still being done trying to have the external .asp CMS poke through to the MySQL DB, as well as setting up the .asp locally. Work are still going on regarding the Technical Document. Dennis & Markus are still going strong, and have something in the box for us soon Ive been told. -Oh, and I thanked no to yet another coder who 'sorta owned TGE'!

Big News -Out there!
Horse Pack!
A couple of days ago I was just as surprised as I imagine Robert Brower was when he recieved the first of the new range of Devnews;)
I saw that his Horse Pack are now finally hitting the public and congratulations on that Robert. Even though we have the pack and are going to use it as allowed back then, I'm going to purchase the improved one as soon as Stefan Moises hands out the purchase link.

Software -For our need!
Tortoise SVN!
I assume you allready have one or another. But for thsoe that still havent anything to go for their handed out codes visit Tortoise and fetch the SVN software. So you can grab the project :)
