[edit] The Freeciv Users and Developers European Conference

On August 2 and 3, 2002, a couple of Freeciv enthusiasts met in Amsterdam. Here are some post-event notes. (partially ported from the old site, the pictures are still there)

[edit] What happened?

Including but not limited to:

the warmup period

where Freecivers crawled under tables to connect the cables, set everything up, discovered it didn't work, and ran around trying to fix things

the introduction round

where Freecivers introduced themselves, explained their involvement with Freeciv, and stirred up discussions about the game, development, future goals and priorities, etc.

the presentations

where Freecivers introduced and demonstrated some current developments:

• Ingo presented his Teamciv
• Raimar presented his management agents
• Thomas S. presented Iuz's war client

and the rest of us were suitably impressed

the cooldown period

where Freecivers went out for a minimum of food and sleep

the afterglow period

where Freecivers rejoined for a boat tour, a museum visit, food, drink, and talk
