Difference Engine ChangeLog
1998
- Sun Nov 15 15:55:28 1998
JVE bugged me once more about the linklint errors etc.,
and I finally caved in and took care of it (thanks for
the hypermail archive fix script, John - I added you to
the credits :-).
The Q2DP project was added, and abandoned (lack of
contributions), w/o being mentioned here. Various missing
bits and pieces have been added, some dangling links been
cleaned (external links are a different matter though).
Changed top and first level mailto's, removed the forms
directory.
Some LDP 3Dfx-HOWTO's happened in February, and mid of
the year, a further update is overdue (sorry). The QuakeDev
has been put in stasis, and cleaned out recently, might
rise and shine again when Q3A is released in 1999. What
else? The linux-3dfx list is going to be scrapped, as
demand was negligible. Some exciting Quake/Java related
stuff might show up here in the next months.
1997
- Sun Jan 26 16:20:28 1997
Missed the january 12th update, and still no changes. CVS is done,
but I am currently very busy. QDP and other updates as well as
cleanup are postponed till further note. I will announce any
updates on the quake-dev mailing list and in r.g.c.q.announce,
so no need to lurk around here.
My apologies. Do expect a major update in a non-Quake section in
about a month.
- Sun Jan 5 14:48:00 1997
Sorry, no updates so far. Haven't merged CVS root with current version.
ETA: january 12th.
1996
- Mon Dec 9 16:10:25 1996

A few additions to the xf3D section, and a minor hack in
the Quake-C section: link to qccspec3.zip now in
quake/Qc/progs1.htm. Note: by now, we have an abundance
of outdated, incomplete, redundant, mixed up, or
obsolete docs not only on this site, but everywhere on
the World Wide Wait (even with the most valuable Slipgate,
it isn't fun anymore).
Expect an Attic section by January.
Checked server side Imagemap support on www.gamers.org.

dicussion. Updated the Readings page a bit.
- Wed Jun 12 22:51:32 1996
Fixed an annoying problem: the SGML-style comment on the
quake/index page - effin' NerdsCrap does not handle
SGML-compliant comments. These guys are about as bad as
MickeySoft. As 1.1N and 2.01 keep locking my X11, the

terminated.

the old style plane/brush definition (flags, no rot/scale).

QuakeEd screenshot page, added QuakeEd source release,
updated QuakeDev index. CVS checkin, export.
- Fri May 17 00:20:59 1996
Propagated changes of navigation bar to several files (an
SGML to HTML conversion using SP/SPAM and subdoc'ed HTML.DTD
is overdue). Had again trouble with CVS and icons (CVS 1.7
installation is overdue, and I might abandon binary file
handling with CVS completely). CVS checkin, export.
- Thu May 16 23:55:14 1996
Finally got around to reorganize the general web/net pages,
namely PGP, Majordomo, Hypermail (yet). Once more changed
linkage and repositories (sigh). Added a few doom files on
request. Updated the May Hypermail archive. Added a make_clean
script, changed web/legal icons to blue/cyan. Added Hypermail
pages, fixed some (very few) dangling links. A validation
run is definitely in order.
- Fri May 10 11:32:58 1996
Fixed background color include, added copyright page and pinters,
complete image and doc CVS checkin. Do not worry, the colors will
be replaced by more decent ones (differently tinted whites).
- Thu May 9 00:10:04 1996

Partial CVS update (not images).
- Wed May 8 23:18:22 1996
Non-keyword binary CVS checkin for GIF, XBM etc. now handled
with shellscript, as I do not trust XEmacs CVS frontend.
Added the PGP documentation and files. Added DOOM pages
pointer, but no content yet.
- Wed May 8 22:56:46 1996
Shell script now handles color icons/thumb/back generation, as
links and CVS make for persistent screwups.
- Wed May 8 22:28:24 1996
Added NerdsCrap "bgcolor" and "background", using color as
low bandwidth category indicator (hopefully will ease Joost's
embarrassment for referencing my plain pages :).

Created a few better backgrounds with xv. Integrated rsc and r3D

problems, created a few more shades of white. Edited licenses
pages, made a few updates to r95 pages. Shortcut to download
area added.
- Tue May 7 23:30:22 1996
Moved certain "welcome.html" and "dE_home.html" to "index.html",
as UNIX links are not handled with CVS (in emacs frontend).
The manual checkin of binaries (namely, "/icons/*.gif") created
copies, which is fine with me.
- Mon May 6 11:26:17 1996
Quick and dirty port of the QuakeDev and Dreadnought pages,
still dangling links and missing pages.
- Mon May 6 00:20:51 1996
