  1. Yes I agree that a lot of things working very well. The DB stuff is actualy quite simple, and what about maping, grids, pathfinding, scripting, spell system and so on?... I can't say that there is a huge lack of documentation, but also I can't say that it's very small. Many mangos internal things that I've wanted to understood seemed quite unusual and undocumented to me when I've got a "first look" at the code. and I don't want to bother community with stupid questions: what does this stuff do, and so on... So we need refactoring of mangos project first of all to make thing simplier and provide full documentation. Also it would be nice to create some UML charts, and provide some aditional testing environment.
  2. I agree with this statement, but we need to start doing something I've used Intel TBB, boost and openmp to do all the paralelization in my projects. ACE is a great library, but I think that it might be some another way to do all the asynchronous stuff. I suppose that all the ACE memory managment and ACE threat synchronization can't be treated by an ordinary newbie. And there is no other way to create an successful project, exept to choose the KISS developing style. We need to simplify and document all the stuff to bring new people to the project. We need a simple inveronment, we need tools to test it and to provide simple testing units. So we can provide some aditional testers in such way, and multiply our production speed. Last mangos milestone has proved that mangos mission is important for the people. But can we put all the newbies to the right stream of mangos development? Can we provide such environment? Yes we can... Maybe it is a big priсe for such situation, I mean the current project status. But it worth it. I think it is the best way to bring new life and people to the project.
  3. Mangos is a big, unique project that has been developed for years. There are a lot of things have been done, and there are a lot of thigs that just stomping the project, First of all it is a leak of documentation, there are no development diagrams, schemes and so on. I don't mean UML, but it would be nice to use it. To my opinion first newbie who wants to join mangos dev team is scared with ACE statements, a lot of unrealized development patterns, and just of codding style. Mangos need refactoring to implement new features, engines and first of all select the best way of developing, to bring new fresh views, to bring new fresh people, to make things that working better... I don't want to make a holy war about ACE, As for me there are a lot of advantages and disadvantages of using it. And I'm familiar with Boost... So I wanted to form a discussing team, with new codders who want to join the dev's team and to learn on developing the mangos server. And veterans who can help to organize all this mess. Thanks for attention. And sorry for bad english.
