I am in touch with Ariak just about this issue atm.
If the various worldbuilders around these boards (elder and youngsters) want to work together, i would propose to set up somme guidelines that all of us those want to contribute to it, agrees to.
It`s not the first time this issue arises and i tried to talk with a few people but we never got anywhere.
Basically the problem lies in the fact that Drawdes hughe piece of work, cant easily be adaptedt to such rules and im well aware that he dont want to lose all his work or rewrite all the stuff he made.
But non the less please take a look at :
http://sourceforge.net/docman/displa...group_id=46446
(Numbers arent set in stone)
A DB that commes close to real EQ cant be done in every detail by just 1 or 2 people. And like Ariak once said :" I dont want to work on Newbiegrounds".
I have no problems with that i got myself certain zones i would not want to work on, but without agreement we wont get far.
Imho it would make sense if a Worldbuilder would pick certain zones, (like a responsibility) and work on them from start to end.
Then once done send it to a DB coordinator. The coord would do a basic compability test and spread it out to some people i would like to call testers. Once all is more or less stable make it public.
