When you have something more than a construction page on the front page, I'd be willing to make a news post announcing the existence of the new source port. I know you're excited, and I am glad that Skulltag has finally spawned something new, though.

My understanding is that zandronum is a SkullTag source fork by Torr Samaho, right?

It'll be interesting to see what he does with it.

I presume this is the same Dagera as the one who spammed the Odamex forum (and I suppose ZDaemon before, too). This is not welcome behavior.

Looking at the moderators log, there was a bit of spammage (a couple of extra posts of the same thing) but the duplicates were disallowed. It's not too unusual for people to make at least one extra post when they first sign up - probably due to not reading the rules. If Dagera posts sensibly from now on it won't be a problem. If he spams, then it will soon cease to be a problem too. It's up to him.

I believe you assume correctly, at least it's what I hear from the grape vine.

I think the main reason for the fork was they felt impeded. I am not on either side, nor am I on the Zandronum team, but I've been told bits and pieces from others. I think overall what happened was pretty shameful, but it wasn't something that surprised me.

It seems to have been basically a redux of the Skulltag.net/Skulltag.com thing. Team wants control of the site, Carn doesn't like relinquishing control of his neglected baby, there's some negotiations that take too long and so a split happens.
