<chap title="Note on releases">
<text>
Whenever Liquid War is released, I usually pass
the good news to Freshmeat
( "http://freshmeat.net/projects/liquidwar/" ).
Then all releases are accessible from the main
download page, which is "http://www.ufoot.org/liquidwar/download".
</text>
<text>
Releasing the game takes time, for I want all binaries
to install properly and sources to compile cleanly.
Therefore there might be some delay before the time
coding is over and the time a release is actually
ready.
So for impatients and/or for people who need to test
out the very latest versions (eg someone who wants
to compile the game on a new platform), it's possible
to access the source repository directly.

<chap title="About GNU Arch">
<text>
I use GNU Arch (Tom Lord's Arch in fact,
"http://www.gnu.org/software/gnu-arch/" ) instead of the
previously used CVS. Indeed, tla has some very fancy features
such as signing patches with gpg, and I'm tired of suffering
CVS limitations.
</text>
<text>
So FYI the previously active CVS repositories, on Sourceforge
and Savannah, are currently unmaintained.

<chap title="How to get latest releases">
<list>
<elem>
Step 1: read the excellent Arch tutorial
"http://regexps.srparish.net/www/tutorial/html/arch.html"
if you are not familiar with tla. I admit there's
a steep learning curve, but it's yet clear and understandable.
</elem>
<elem>
Step 2: point on my repository, which is accessible (read-only) on
"http://ufoot.hd.free.fr/depot/pub/2005-freesoftware/liquidwar/".
Should this address move, try "http://ufoot.hd.free.fr/depot/pub/"
and browse until you find Liquid War.
</elem>
</list>
<text>
Note that "http://ufoot.hd.free.fr" is a personnal web server
located in my living room. It uses a simple DSL connection,
so bandwidth won't be exceptionnally high, and it may suffer
long and unexpected downtimes.
</text>
<text>
If you are interested, I can open this repository in read/write
mode, however one of the points of GNU Arch is that it allows
cooperative developpement with multiple depots, so this isn't
mandatory. And anyways, importing myself patches received
by email has never been a real burden.
