Mod poll for markus_heiden

[The Storm]

Hi all,

I must first say Wellcome to markus_heiden the second developer of E[POD]bot.
We will work together for better results.
Now I need by the council members vote for markus_heiden to make him a moderator for the E[POD]bot forum.

Well...if you trust him enough I guess it would be OK to let him be a mod on your forum...

Hmm now I think of it...a developer doesn't need to be a mod per se, maybe he can prove himself first for a little while?

Well he made a very good things to EPB. Full linux support and updated metamod headers to 1.18.
Here the correct ChangeLog from Markus:

- Used hlsdk 2.3-p2 headers from metamod.
- Created directory structure like hlsdk in epb.
- Used original metamod headers.
- Fixed bot.h: "import <util.h>" changed to "import <sdk_util.h>"
- Fixed bot.h: include "import <values.h>" for linux and "import <float.h>" for windows
- Fixed dll.cpp: removed problematic but unused declaration: "clientdata_s cd;" commented out
- Reworked Makefile
- Adapted visual studio project files.

The new version will be published with some more AI fixes by me.

Fine with me, if you trust him...

Usually when I make a decision like this I first have to know the person well enough to say yes or no. I'll have to abstain as I do not know markus_heiden well enough at this point in time.

Hi folks,

I am Markus Heiden from Hamburg / Germany. I am 32 years old, an "Informatik" (computer science) student at the university of hamburg and work for a java software development company. I am an experienced programmer (~20 years), but primarily in java and less in c/c++.

Currently I am active in the leJOS development (lejos.sourceforge.net) too. Since this year I am a member of a fun cs clan (www.mosleyland.de) which plays the wc3ft mod. Because I am setting up the servers for that clan I searched a bot for cs to get more action on our servers. After searching a lot, I found out that podbot must be the bot of choice for cs and I am glad to see that the development is not dead. But because it seemed that there was no current linux version (of epb) I tried to build one of the sources. During this I updated epb to the newest metamod api.

For the future I would like to refactor epb to be more oo to get new functionality easier to develop. My primary focus lies on getting a stable linux version of epb and to extend my c/c++/unix knowledge.

Markus

The poll still needs council member votes.

[botmeister]

I'll vote yes if no one objects, but that still won't be enough at this point in time.
