 The fact that the game is so fun, and that I have played a part in it would make me want to stay working on BfW. Also I would like to improve the AI even further after the project and become the Wesnoth AI expert.

 Yes I am familiar with SVN, C++, and Python, though my Python skills are not as fine tuned as they can be.  I usually use Objective-C in Apple's Xcode IDE for development, because I find them elegant and powerful.

	I think I would only need a short time (say a week) to observe and discuss strategies with other players. (I think I would be able to continue this as the weeks go on in my spare time) Then over the next 3 to 4 weeks I would construct the foundation of the Planner I will use, possibly extending the FormulaAI. Then in the remaining time I would implement a specific AI with strong strategies, decision making, and adaptability. It is hard to gauge the amount of time necessary, and I can see this time line shifting as the project progresses.
