[Scummvm-devel] Kyrandia engine and team

[Max Horn]

Since there are two requests for team membership which so far haven't 
been answererd "officially" (i.e. on the list) by the two project 
leads, I'll take that up now :-)

First one, handled in this mail: LordHoto regarding Kyra.

I know nothing about kyra (the game) and don't have it, so I can't 
really judge how good the submitted work is, and if there is any 
substantial work besides copying code from freekyra. Ender may have 
more of an oppinion in that regard since he has some interest in kyra 
himself.

Other than that, I was not yet fully convinced by some of the work I 
have seen and the discussion with LordHoto I read in the logs. Despite 
this, my stance is this: if somebody wants to vouch for LordHoto, then 
we can add him in. Of course as usually, you shouldn't break things 
outside the kyra module, talk to other team members / leads before you 
make non-trivial changes to global functionality (like messing with 
OSystem or the File class) etc., but that should be obvious anyway :-)


Cheers,
