The Freeciv Users and Developers European Conference[]
On August 2 and 3, 2002, a couple of Freeciv enthusiasts met in Amsterdam. Here are some post-event notes.
What happened?[]
Including but not limited to:
- the warmup period
- where Freecivers crawled under tables to connect the cables, set everything up, discovered it didn't work, and ran around trying to fix things
- the introduction round
- where Freecivers introduced themselves, explained their involvement with Freeciv, and stirred up discussions about the game, development, future goals and priorities, etc.
- the presentations
- where Freecivers introduced and demonstrated some current developments:
- Ingo presented his Teamciv
- Raimar presented his management agents
- Thomas S. presented Iuz's war client
- and the rest of us were suitably impressed
- the cooldown period
- where Freecivers went out for a minimum of food and sleep
- the afterglow period
- where Freecivers rejoined for a boat tour, a museum visit, food, drink, and talk
