Some changes

Yeah, I know, another long break between updates, but really, what is there to say? A few important things actually. Firstly on the issue of engines. Since the beginning we have been intent on using jme, a Java engine, so that we have the flexibility to make the application both an applet and standalone application. However, we are now looking further into both the feasibility and the actual advantages offered with a applet version. If it is decided that the applet is either not worth the extra effort or is technically infeasible then we will likely look towards a C++ or C# based engine as the library support is much greater.

Secondly our development strategy has been completely revised, moving from an open design community to the standard closed development team. Unfortunately this also means a change to our company aims and ethos but it is an insurmountable legal hurdle. The about pages will be changed later on today. Along with this change in team setting is a change in development media. Instead of using an open wiki like originally intended the focus of development has moved to the forum medium for communication and directly using our server for storage of files.

We are still looking for dev team members however, people skilled with art especially and perhaps another couple of people skilled with words. Please check the Positions board on the forums.
