Community,
In light of the two points below, I wish to call for someone or someones to step up as the Guidebook maintainer and fork or update the Guidebook for 1.2.0.
(1) I e-mailed Andy Williams asking about the license for the Guidebook. He replied, "You can consider it public domain at this point. I can't see myself doing further work on it."
(2) Nevermind Chaos Knights, Mist Elves, new items, fixed bugs .. over the past week there have been a brazillian tweaks to how ADOM has worked for a decade (see: harder temples, change in how stat potentials rise, and all the scumming methods that got nerfed for just three examples.
So the guidebook is getting increasingly inaccurate, and getting started on updating it before 1.2.0 is final anyway is a good idea. Also, I don't volunteer because I don't want to take on the additional responsibility of maintaining the guidebook, and I find documentation boring (though necessary) anyway.
I recommend that whoever tries this uses source control, and I further recommend using git and pushing the repo to GitHub, in the open source spirit, and so I can just point to it in my ADOM Server git repo.
Regards,
Alucard
