Hi guys.
Rui here.
Bird is hiring 2 more people to work with him for coordinating the game development effort.
These two new guys will work under his suppervision.
The task of coordinating such a team has proven to be a herculean one.
Too many nuances, contracts being trasnlated to english, but all of them with substantial differences, for there are programers from all over the world, from British Columbia to Italy, to Germany, etc...
He (Bird) is having a not-so-good-time dealing with legal intricacies regarding each countries policy.
He is doing a per-country contract kind of effort.
I am not aware of everything that is currently happenning in the legal front, but as far as I can tell, things are going fine.
As a matter of fact, I just left a meeting with Bird and the directors.
They are still on the meeting, working on some non-technical matters.
But it has been spotted that, due to the number of developpers, Bird has not been able to coordinate things well and was not able to get thing rolling as smooth as desired - that´s way he decided tha the companny has to hire two other coordinators.
It´s something new to all of us down here, and probably is new to you guys as well, so I would like to ask you to be patient, and asure you that Bird is doing all tht is inhumanly possible to achieve the goals.
He is involved with many things going on, specially regarding the legal aspects, so please allow him another couple of days before you get something really consistent comming from him and/or his subordinates (is that the word?).
Meanwhile, feel free to ask questions and give us some feedback, etc...
But PLEASE, whenever you e-mail me, add the "Att. Rui" to the subject line, so I know it is something technical, i.e., it is something that *I* am supposed to read, not Bird.
About the upload, everything went well.
But the Java guys here did not release the url - the guys are very picky about allowing this kind of access.
So, we are a 100+ employees company, and naturaly things are sometimes slower than we would like.
Rest asured that I will be following Birds steps (hehehe) and make sure things go as fast as it can go.
Answering to 0DEFx, yes, we got some deals going on, and three games were already selected.
As Bird stated in a previous post, please go ahead and work on a very simple version of the casino game you choose from the games list.
As soon as you get something to show, no matter how ugly (or how buggy for that matter) it is, please send us a copy of the executable.
I (together with the Casino software crew) will check it out and most likely, give it the ok, so you guys can proceed to the legal aspects, with Bird and his team (the two new guys will be hired within the next couple of days).
Thank you all for yourtime.
