Newbie / Question for the regulars

« on: November 30, 2009, 03:46:22 AM »

Not sure we've got the background to do the heavy graphics stuff. Found a page off the wiki that describes a Darwinbots 3 'Wish List' at http://www.darwinbots.com/WikiManual/index...ots_3_wish_list. Is this up to date? I at least have some (academic) knowledge of networking, and feel that I might be able to implement one of the two features under that category. Is this something that still needs to be done?

So here's the scoop. The class is called Open Source Software, and all they require is for me (and my partner) to get involved with an open source project. Unfortunately, I don't know C#, but I do know C++ and have heard it's an easy port. I haven't checked with the professor yet, but if DB3 is under the MIT license, I don't expect any problems.

Also, someone should update the wiki or website or something to say that DB2 is no longer under construction, because I was under the impression it was still being worked on and that the repository was still updated regularly.

I have a question for the regulars who contribute code here. I came to your site through Wikipedia, which calls Darwinbots an Open Source Alife sim. I've done a bit of digging and found a file called ReadMe- Copyright notice.txt in the SVN repo for the code. I'm concerned that the restriction of use (part 3) doesn't fit the requirements of 'Open Source' that I've been taught. I'm looking around for an Open Source project to contribute to as part of a college project and would really like to help out with Darwinbots, but I'm not sure my professor will accept the project. Does anyone have any ideas to help me?
