TODO list Edit

• FTWL/OpenGL client or OpenGL drawing backend.
• Figure out a way to add animation to the map drawing backend.
• Start work on a Civilization III style ruleset (should be easier than SMAC IMHO). It doesn't need to be 100% compatible at the beginning.
• New governments rules.
• Also see the Help wanted forum.

Feel free to pitch in to help code any of the above.
