Any chance of a git/github migration?

We'll be switching to a new vcs at some point after the CMake changes. We haven't decided exactly on the specifics other than it will either be Mercurial or Git.

Git is a bit more mature in some respects for the core but Mercurial has significantly better support on Windows. Also should point out: when we change we will also move off of google code instead of use their git/hg option.

Awesome!

Anyone know how the support is for binary blobs in Mercurial?

I would love to set up an auto download / build / confirmation script for building a linux vm image.

ie, download this image and VirtualBox zip and your server works out of the box on a network. After that adding a simply script (python or something else simple) for modifying it for safety for using as a public-able server.

I actually got a little giddy (more than I probably should have) when I saw this CMake branch since EQEmu's build system is rather lacking. And moving to git/hg also gives me the same amount of excitement :P

Personally I would say git, but that's only because I know it better, but I can learn hg as well!

Rather lacking is the nice way of saying it. I've heard good things from people who have used it so far. I have a few more changes I want to do before I reintegrate the branch but shouldn't be long.
