Based off of this thread (http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~fof/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7483). The basic gist of Project FOFC is for this board to program some sort of open source game. I would really like to get moving on this idea as I think it's a great one and don't want it to lose momentum before it can even get started. This thread will be acompanied by another thread with a poll about what kind of game we want(see first reply for link).
As I said in the original thread I think we need to gather some consenus about a project leader so that we can have some vision and well leadership. As this is a group project we need someone who can say "this is the way it will be" to keep things moving but also someone who will listen to the whole community. The idea isn't to pick someone to program this by themselves, merely to facilitate the project.
I have listed below all the people who said they'd be willing to help and know some sort of programming language. I listed just those who have programming experince as they would be, I think, best positioned to make decisions about code and be a resource. Of course we could always decide that this need not be the requirement for a qualified person.
I would hope that this be more of a discussion than a vote and hopefully we can come to some sort of consensus as we did when we made Data our man for the. Obviously some people who will have their name listed below won't want to do it and some who aren't listed might want to be project leader, I'm just trying to get the ball rolling.
GoldenEagle (VB)
the_meanstrosity (Java)
Fido (C++)
Aylmar (Java, C++)
Again those four names are meant as a starting point not a finishing point.
