   Enthral Code Clean has Started! Release    
   28 Mar 14 02:07:40   
   
   It's been a while since I've posted an update.  I've been leaving this echo   
   for all major updates and announcements, as well as any general discussion and   
   questions.  Most of the features, testing and general discussion have been   
   taking place on my bbs in the local Enthral message area.     
      
   Things are pretty stable so I've started cleaning things up a bit and I've   
   been working on putting a tarball together and getting stuff re-imported into   
   a new SVN repository. I have builds going pretty smooth.  I stll have to make   
   sure everything is still good accross other platforms and it will give my   
   build scripts a good test to make sure everything is covered.  I still have to   
   put together new install scripts though. I'm also plan to seperate the source   
   pull and the data pulls when getting from the repository to keep things a bit   
   cleaner.     
      
   Once the code pull is all set, I have to setup the data pulls next which will   
   contain all of the BBS INI Files, ANSI Files, Scripts and Folder structure.  I   
   will also have seperate pulls for Entelnetd (Enthral's Telnetd), and my own   
   fork of Crashmail.  Although, at this time you can use any mail tosser that   
   supports JAM message areas.     
      
   If your wondering why I'm not using Github, I don't think my code is quite   
   there yet for Github consumption.  Its still alpha, and still needs a lot of   
   love but I'm open to anyone who wants to tinker and have fun with it.  Plus I   
   have SVN and have been using it quite a while so at sometime in the future   
   when I feel things are more polished I will revisit GitHub :)   
      
   I've spent about 8 hours tonight cleaning and sorting out the source files   
   for a clean build.  I expect the other stuff to take a bit of time to put   
   together along with install info and a list of changes.  I also plan to make   
   some binary files for those who aren't up to compiling to check things out. At   
   the moment I have a couple virtual machines setup for linux 32 bit Ubuntu,   
   my current Arch Linux for 64 bit.  OSX Lion for 64 bit Mac-Intel.  I still   
   need to setup some other vm's for BSD, and check out some old scripts that   
   Netsurge left with me for osx universal binaries that he did for me sometime    
   ago.  Some things I'll just play by ear. Since I use a few newer gcc compiler   
   flags and libraries recent distros will most likely be needed in most cases   
   to compile the source.  A list of all requirement and dependencies will   
   be provided in the install doc's.   
      
   Stay tuned more to come soon.
