Finger info for icculus@icculus.org...



 (Seen my glasses? I'm a dork.)

 If you want a specific section of my plan, you can use the web interface
  like this:

  http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/finger/finger.pl?user=icculus&section=intro
  http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/finger/finger.pl?user=icculus&section=proj
  http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/finger/finger.pl?user=icculus&section=general
  http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/finger/finger.pl?user=icculus&section=ssam
  http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/finger/finger.pl?user=icculus&section=todo

 Or directly through port 79, if your finger client will let you get away with:
  finger icculus?section=ssam@icculus.org

This is part of the new, improved IcculusFinger. Yay.

Thanks,
  --The McManagement.



Currently Active Projects:
 (This is in no particular order)


  - The icculus.org open source incubator.
  - SDL_sound.
  - PhysicsFS.
  - The Build Engine.
  - Toby.
  - Serious Sam.
  - IcculusFinger.
  - UT2003.
  - various Pyrogon things.
  - csmhax0r.
  - IcculusNews.
  - Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
  - Other stuff.

 I have projects on icculus.org (some are even mine) that are already
  abandoned. I will have to figure out what to do with them. If you want to
  peek around, look at The CVS Tree.



General stuff:


 First off, I need to give a shout out to Glen Miner at Digital Extremes. I
  couldn't get a VPN connection to their Perforce server working under Linux
  to save my life, and within ten minutes, he hooked me up with a SSH tunnel.
  Digital Extremes (and Epic, for that matter), has proven to be a very
  impressive crew, and I'm enjoying my work with them.

 Serious Sam is still collecting dust in the middle of the 1.07 merge. Merging
  is tedious if you do it slowly and error prone if you do it quickly. I
  haven't found a graphical tool that makes it easier, either, so I just need
  to suck it up and finish it. There's only about 60,000 lines left to sort
  through in the diff at this point anyhow. :( I'll finish this when I get
  back in town from the wedding, after the July 4th holidays.

 Finally, new stuff: Medal of Honor. EA has contracted me to produce a linux
  dedicated server, and I have. Right now, it's in closed beta, and servers
  should be popping up on GameAdmins and The Cyberspace Matrix later
  tonight. We'll open this up to a public beta a little later on. In the
  meantime, if you want to keep track of what's going on, you can subscribe
  to the mailing list by sending a blank email to mohaa-subscribe@icculus.org,
  where we'll be discussing bugs and stuff, or check out the bug database at
  https://bugzilla.icculus.org/ (bug reports from gamers as well as admins
  are very welcome, by the way!) Otherwise, feel free to pound on the servers
  when they come up later tonight.

  Update: The Cyberspace Matrix servers are up:
  Connect to either:
  odin.cyberspacematrix.net:12204
  or:
  odin.cyberspacematrix.net:12206

  (That's 12.111.195.131, for the DNS-impared). In the server browser,
  look for the host that says "LINUX SERVER: The Cyberspace Matrix"

  Update #2: GameAdmins is good to go:
  Connect here: 208.152.157.168:12203

  They also have "LINUX SERVER" in their server name, if you're
  looking for it in the server browser.
  GameAdmins has more servers on the way. Thanks to ClanServers.net
  for their support in this, too.



Serious Sam:

 Yes, I'm porting it. No, there's no timeframe right now. Email me with
 questions, and I'll start a FAQ or something.

Current Status:
 Manually merging a three megabyte diff will give you faith in God. It's kinda
  like untossing a salad.

 Those old Screenies.
 Keep me and icculus.org going.
