'''Database maintenance'''<br/>

We are going to convert all MySQL tables from MyIsam to InnoDB. MyIsam is the default table engine in MySQL but it does not support transactions which sporadically leads to failed account creations. Several database operations are not possible at the moment because MyIsam always locks the complete table for concurrent access which in turn causes huge lag in game.

'''Hudson used for continuous integration'''<br/>

Since this summer we use hudson for regular building of stendhal. You can find it [http://stendhal.game-host.org/hudson here]. A documentation on how to configure hudson is placed [[HudsonTestServer|here]] in the wiki.

'''NPC available on the web'''<br/>

Information and pictures of NPCs are now available on the [http://stendhal.game-host.org/?id=content/game/npcs website]. It is now possible to include information and pictures of NPC (like <npc>Margaret</npc>) into the wiki as well. Thanks to Hamtaro, most of the quests on the StendhalQuests page already contain such popup.

'''[[User:Hendrik Brummermann|Hendrik Brummermann]], 20 Sep. 2008'''<br>

The wiki is now hosted on the game server. Apart from it now being much faster and more responsive it allows us to integrate it with the normal game server web site and the game itself. As a first step it is now possible to include data about creatures (like <creature>bear|bears</creature>), items (like the mighty <item>rod of the gm</item>) and players (like the dutiful <player>postman</player>). Have a look at the test page [[Sandbox/StendhalDataInclude Test]] for more details.
