Well, here's the main thing I'm wondering about.

Supernova was abandoned in, what, 2000ish? What has the Stars! community been doing since? According to gible's Stars! Wiki there are five clone projects. Why doesn't everyone just collaborate on a single project to get it done faster and with lots of yummy features implemented? I assume I'm missing a bit of history here, perhaps something buried in the very Freestars forum, but nevertheless . . .

If you're trying to conquer an enemy, divide and conquer is often a good approach. You split up their forces and disorganize them, forcing them to view their own little front as the only front, instead of taking a wider approach to what's going on. I don't know that's there specifically any malevolent force at work trying to divide and conquer the Freestars projects, but the effect seems to be the same. We have five different projects all at different stages of development. Why don't the writers just band together and create one project? I'm guessing there are probably design differences involved. So put aside the differences and come to sort of compromise, to get some degree of organization. It's like founding an alliance, and that often requires compromise . . .

I've course, I might be off entirely, but in my view something should certainly change. If there were a Stars! clone that does everything Stars! did and more, wouldn't people want to play it instead?

And now I have to go to work.

Yeah, bread too.
