| |
| − | FOSDEM2012 will host a devroom centered on the development of Free and Open Source Games. Possible speakers (and topic suggestions) are invited to make their proposals. The game development devroom takes place on Sunday, February 5th, 09:00 - 17:00 in room AW1.120 (74 seats). Please have a look at [http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?t=35489 this forum thread] to read the call for speakers.

| |
| − | Finally some news not directly related to a new release. Several contributors to Wesnoth have been meeting at FOSDEM for the last 4 years where we took the opportunity to discuss things in person as well as meeting each other. We [http://wiki.wesnoth.org/Fosdem2011#FOSDEM_2012 talked about] eventually trying to get a whole devroom where things can be presented and discussed. During the GSoC Mentor summit at the end of October one topic discussed with other organizations was the creation of such a devroom. Some hours ago the accepted devrooms were announced and the result is:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There will be an "Open Source Game Development" related devroom at [http://fosdem.org/2012/ FOSDEM 2012].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Of course things won't stop there. Since several organizations (including [http://www.wesnoth.org Battle for Wesnoth], [http://www.hedgewars.org Hedgewars], [http://www.unknown-horizons.org Unknown Horizons], [http://www.scummvm.org ScummVM] and [http://www.worldforge.org WorldForge]) agreed on collaborating in this room, further things will be discussed on neutral grounds. There is a [https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/open-source-gamedev-devroom mailing list] provided by the FOSDEM folks where we can discuss things. There will also be a "call for speakers" soon. Possible topics can include anything related to open source gaming, meaning it could be about porting to specific platforms, artworks (graphics and sound), translations, working on AI, encouraging UMC contributions or whatever you can think about in regards to open source gaming. The only limit I personally see is that the speaker should have some background in an open source gaming related project e.g. by being a contributor in the area they want to talk about.

Wesnoth 1.13.7 is now available! This is the seventh development release in the 1.13.x series and it delivers a number of improvements, most notably to the UI, and bug fixes. If you want to know more about it, check out the forum thread with the list of changes in this version.
As on previous occasions, we also offer two versions of the changelog: a trimmed-down players changelog including only those items considered to be relevant in regular gameplay, and a more technical full changelog for enthusiasts and content creators.
The source code, Windows, and macOS packages are already available on the downloads page. You may also find packages for other platforms there as they become available.
Bear in mind that this is a development version, and one with major internal changes — as such, it is likely to include a lot of new bugs, some of which are already listed in the release notes. If you encounter other issues, make sure to report them to us so they can be fixed for future releases.
You may comment on this release in the forums.
