Work on the Addon Server

I plan to work on the Addon Server, update the code to improve inter-operability with external tools (such as WML tools and WesCamp) and add some social content.

Server Side

I plan to work on the server code in C++, because:

• C++ can easily embed python directly, or with Boost C++ Libraries (which are already one of Wesnoth' dependancies)
• C++ runs on Linux AND stay easily portable to others platforms (Windows, Mac Os X...)
• The biggest part of Wesnoth is in C++, so why change ?
• Python tools like the WML suite of tools wan be easily usable directly from the server

Client Side

Menu

• List of new addons
• List of most popular (downloads or new criterias)
• Search box

Each addon should have an exmpanded view, and a simple one Exmpanded view with

• comment by the author
• tags (officials, and author)
• list of translations (versionned)
