Anyone pick up the Manx ball yet?

If so, then no I don't believe any of that source code has been released. It was hard enough to get a database dump. That tells me that the original author (Paul something? Sorry, I've forgotten his name and I only have a "manx" email address for him) has basically abandoned this and has no more energy to do anything about it. I can sympathize because I've also been on projects that drained me to zero and at that point you don't have any more energy to even help people who want to continue it. Basically, I consider it lucky that we got the database and we should consider that any community based web site to resurrect the functionality will have to be created from scratch. I would contribute to such an effort, but I don't have time to spearhead it on my own. We should organize a group of willing contributors and divvy up the work so we can coordinate. I'd suggest making it an open source project with distributed version control to it as easy as possible to contribute. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>
