branding help files update

Post by o11c »

Something like this should be applied to http://gitorious.org/tmw/branding

I can't make the words pretty - I think there should be a decent "About" section; also, should Mana's "support" file point to our forums?

To test: mana ./tmw.mana

Also we still need news for the website (which is done via sourceforge). I'm pretty sure I have the permissions on sourceforge (I know I do to *pull* from sourceforge to the main website), but again, I'm not a man of pretty words. I'm still not sure why they don't just have a cronjob to pull news every day or so ...

Hi o11c,

The patch is fine to me, in principle. Thanks!!

I'd change this:

Code: Select all

+ Mana, which develops this client and a future server, split off
+to become a separate project from The Mana World, which produces
+content (e.g. maps, graphics, sounds, quests) and maintains the
+awful code from eAthena that is the server.
to that:

Code: Select all

+ The Mana client from the Manasource project (http://www.manasource.org),
+which develops this client and a future server, has split off
+to become a separate project.
+ The Mana World team is focusing on producing content
+(e.g. maps, graphics, sounds, quests) and is maintaining the
+(now old) code from the eAthena server.
in order to try avoiding subjective content in our packaging. Yet, this stays open for everyone's review, if wanted.

Can I ask you to create a repository in the themanaworld organization in github.com?
I think we should clearly move there from now on.

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Bertram
