I cannot speak for the scripts, as I was not involved into that. I assume this could have been handled better, politically. My personal opinion: If something is free and open-source, anyone can do with it as they please. People fork projects all the time. As long as the commit authors are preserved I do not think anyone has reason to complain. Anyone can check the commits in the repo and see that the actual work was done by the SD2 team and just pulled by MaNGOS. I do agree that everyone can fork SD2 and do whatever they wish with it. My point is that SD2 started as a Mangos friend project. So I didn't understand the idea of the guys which just wanted to take the scripts from us and integrate them into the core, without adding any additional change, since SD2 is already perfectly integrated in core. And also without talking to SD2 about it.

From my personal point of view the official MaNGOS project is now dead. There was no active development on Zero, One, WotLK and master for a very long period of time. The only source of active development are the two main mangos forks: MangosR2 and Cmangos. I just hope that in the future, some of these will take responsibility to support all the client versions. Also, as a personal opinion: I didn't like the fact that the recent project admins tried to hijack SD2, by creating the scripts repositories just to pull the commits from master SD2. Same applies for DB projects.

As far as I know, SD2 stands very good in therms of activity.

Just a thought - is it legal to post confidential information, such as sniffs, on a public forum?

Well Silverice's repo hasn't been updated for about 3 months. It would be nice to have some updates on the code with the latest mmaps changes.

World pvp is under development, but the basics work. Of course it may need some optimization but it's playable. The sources can be found here: https://github.com/xfurry/mangos/commits/world_pvp Enjoy and don't forget to report bugs.

* What bug does the patch fix? What features does the patch add? Implement missing spell effect for the spell Mark of Death. This is similar to the Mark of Frost and Mark of Nature spells. This is used by the Doomwalker in a similar way Azuregos and the Emerald dragons use the other two spells * For which repository revision was the patch created? 11928 * Who has been writing this patch? Please include either forum user names or email addresses. me * Patch http://paste2.org/p/1906650

The warden is a controversial feature. I think the next one should be either dungeon finder or outdoor pvp.

No they don't. This is how it works on vanilla: (Spells 27690, 27691, 27692, 27693)

Hasn't this been fixed yet? I thought it was...

It seems that the latest capture point updates have some update issues. Can anyone handle some help about this: https://github.com/xfurry/mangos/commit/33792100db5b3ef67b3f3c359e117e195f1097af (see commit comment). Thanks

* What bug does the patch fix? What features does the patch add? Implement script effect and dummy effect for two spells used by Shirrak the Dead watcher Basically the npc Focus fire is summoned under a player and after a few seconds casts the Ping Shirrak spell. When the boss receives the ping it casts the Focus fire spell which triggers the damage spells on the Focus fire npc. * For which repository revision was the patch created? 11882 * Is there a thread in the bug report section or at lighthouse? If yes, please add a link to the thread. no * Who has been writing this patch? Please include either forum user names or email addresses. me * Patch http://paste2.org/p/1880792

Then how do we extend it, if we don't change anything?

Any news about this? In some scripts, especially 3.x.x scripts, it would be useful to have such a feature. See - Anub'arak (Azjol Nerub) or Trollgore (Draktharon Keep). - it may be possible to have other examples as well.
