Since only a very little amount of people (3) actually involved themselves in the project, it might look partisan; not because we want to remain a close group ; but realistically, in the game current state, you can't hope to get many more dedicated, competent people
i've been accused to be partial, because i made a change that enforces a set of maps for competitive matches. While its obviously needed, if you want to make this game more competitive.
If i felt i had been allowed to make those changes in AC's official repository as much as i want, i would have done it. But my views, i'm afraid, aren't shared with most current "developers" (well basically only mods and MIA 'project leaders' are still here).
So, the only option left i had, was to work on an alternative, because when you are starting an ambitious project (ambitious in comparison to what has been done so far..), freedom is crucial.
Regarding dev CV/applications: i would like to say that one of the best way to apply is to submit patches. Larry never sent a patch to me.
