July Update

Wow, a month already... I did manage to get a whole bunch of things done over the last month including persistence of rules and character sheets. I also fixed up a few things with the UI. Currently I am adding the rule engine console, so you can see the messages from the rule engine and rules as it runs, namely for troubleshooting. Next will be the creation of the basic core rules usable by any game system. These will all be viewable (but not editable) by you as examples on how to write your own. Once that's done, I will start on the character generation framework. That's a pretty complex feature, and the final one before I can release the first beta. There's a bunch of items I have left outstanding as well, but they are not huge (well not all of them at least). I want the first beta release to have a character generator and ability to manage character sheets. Other features will appear in subsequent beta releases.

I have not decided whether the beta will be open or closed yet. I like the open beta concept because it provides the maximum input. However too much input can be overwhelming as well. That's something I will decide on as we get closer to completion. There's no specific date, since work sometimes goes fast, and sometimes slowly. Hang in there, it will come out eventually.
