:Well, TFM, the thing is that this is an article about a piece of software that nobody knows of and that is not available. What's more, it could well be just a note in another article. CPCng was a real project that generated lots of interest, not just some internal dev tool. That's the difference... Don't you see the difference? [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]]
::However, you may know or not, I was for a long time a member of the CPCng developpment team. Fact is that the CPCng is still nothing else than an idea (what a pity). Ok, some pictures and diagramms were made, some datas were collected. But there is nothing real at all. The GSEditor in contrast is a fully working program. It's ready to be used. If you want, I can send you an private copy to look at it (german language at the moment). But for creating games in an good and easy way I still have to add some functions. Functions that I don't know at the moment by myself, because their need will show during developpment. That depends on the interaction with [[Tolkin|Tolkin]], who is responsible for the game-play and different other things. I hope that I'm able to make me understandable with my poor english ;-)) Further I want to add an international language interface before a potential release. I will not prerelease any software, because this wonderful scene (especially thinking about Kangaroo) uses any chance to beat up unfinished projects. There is a hardware developper, that thinks the same way, you know his creations.
::Don't misunderstand me I don't want ANY article to be deleted. I also like the SOS article, and I want to keep it. Nothing should be deleted at all. In my opinion an enzyclopedia should have place for all things. I can't understand why there is a need to delete articles at all. How can somebody try to collect knowledge, when parts of the knowledge were deleted? However I don't make the rules of the Wiki here, do it like you think that it is right.
::In principle I see here the same problem like with the GUI discussion. Finally here is never an agreement. And one person must decide. So the result is always a personal thing, not a logical. This sentence shouldn't be an insult by the way ;-)))
::Another thing... coming back to languages... Can you send me a greek charset for the CPC? I would like to add greek to CBM, since a long time, but nobody seem to be interested. I asked some greek guys before, they told me english is enough. [[TFM|TFM]].
:::Points well taken. You must see the difference, though: CPCng was a project in which lots of people were interested and one that would, if fruitful, be enjoyed by lots of people. A tool, on the other hand, that you have built yourself for your own use is of no interest to anyone else... If you released it to the public then it would be very much suitable for an article of its own.:::As it is, I think that just a mention about it in one of the other articles (FOS, GGS) would be more than enough. Do you see the logic behind that? :::Oh, about the Greek language: the other guys were correct, english is more than enough :D Greek words are very often longer and they don't fit well inside space-restricted interfaces, plus since we all speak english we prefer to see a program running with normal english terms than mangled-up (as is usually the case) greek translations. Anyhow, what form would the greek charset come in? How could one send it to you? It's not like you just change codepages or use other built-in characters, first you have to draw them and then substitute latin ones with the new ones... [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]]
