Title: Where's Polly?
Post by: RnDr FOX on October 11, 2008, 03:04:29 pm

Well I haven't heard much on the Polly game engine in awhile and I was wondering how it was doing.

Well. Maybe you guys should be worried.. there have been three negative trends:

1) the recent months, I've had to work my ass off with my PhD, and haven't had time to do any stuff on Polly. The less you work on a project, the harder it gets to start on it again
2) then my computer broke down, and I need to buy a new one  (all source is backed up, naturally).
3) I tried to raise interest, but seemed like very few people were actually intent on *doing* anything to help with the project

Anyways. When xmas closes in, and I hopefully finish a paper, I can go back to Polly for a while.. but I am having trouble defining a motivating goal, what features should be implemented, which can be dropped, and how to get there. Not an easy thing to finish a task when you have to push yourself.
