This article outlines the facilities and services that make up Freeciv's infrastructure.

What we have

Metaserver

  • Older versions of Freeciv up to and including 1.14.x use an older Metaserver at meta.freeciv.org/metaserver/freeciv.html
  • Freeciv 2.0, 2.1, and later versions have a new Metaserver which you can find at meta.freeciv.org/metaserver.phtml

Sourcecode repository

We use Subversion (SVN) hosted by gna.org: svn.gna.org/viewcvs/freeciv/

Bug Tracking System

Currently we use patched RT (3.0.6) at rt.freeciv.org. Because of it is patched, we can't upgrade it simply. Most problems with current BTS design: 1) spam; 2) periodical problems with maillist; 3) current problem with guest account.

Wiki

We have a wiki at wikia.com. It is the only up-to-date website...

Forum

Our forum is phpbb with several custom patches applied and resides at forum.freeciv.org. It is outdated and upgrading has failed twice as of 2007.

Mailing lists

Mailing lists are hosted by gna.org: https://gna.org/mail/?group=freeciv

Downloads

We use the download section on sourceforge.net for official downloads: http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeciv/

FTP

We host a an ftp at ftp.freeciv.org with anonymous upload activated for ftp.freeciv.org/freeciv/incoming

IRC

Official Freeciv IRC channel at Freenode. See Freeciv:Community Portal#IRC.

Backup

  • evyscr has three (now) cron scripts on cvs.freeciv.org that make S2_0 and S2_1 snapshot tarballs. This means I nave an svn branches tree there.

What we need

Translator services

  • Translation statistics
  • Automatic generation of msgmerged po files

Public servers (Pubserver)

Pubserver was an online service to host Freeciv games and provides ranking and statistics amongst other things. It was operational from 1998 to 2006 but is offline as of 2007.
