Hey folks,
after a long time of bot assaults on NiL's wiki, I've finally found enough time to integrate a CAPTCHA system for non-registered users which should fix the problem. i18n doesn't work yet, so I'm going to deactivate it.
In other news, I'm going to resume work on NiL again - this time with more progress, hopefully.
Cheers

After a couple of months I started working on NiL again. Some importanted additions and changes have been made to the wiki:
- It displays correctly in Mickeysoft Internet Exploiter
- The development subsection now contains instructions on retrieving and building NiL
- Two user stories added
- Modified the mediawiki skin to output valid xhtml 1.0 strict again
- Enhanced css for preformatted text (especially useful for code)
- Added a template for user stories
- Finally created my userpage including some background information
Stay tuned!

I've upgraded Nil's Mediawiki from version 1.5.8 to 1.6.3 so the highly useful new template features already popular at the Wikipedia Project are available now.
Enjoy! (0 comments)

Instead of creating new code I've been adding content to the newly created NiL Wiki for some time now and I'm still waiting for the sf.net staff to change ownership on the old project homepage so it can be replaced by the Wiki.
One of the currently most important aspects is defining the mission statement and development tasks in the form of Userstories, a technique from eXtreme Programming. I hope to encourage hackers to join the project through those easily grasped and well-defined bits.
The current URI for development is

In the last news item I promised you to deliver good news real soon. So here it is:
I setup a Mediawiki at home and created a new skin for NiL. After going through the troublesome process of installing Mediawiki on sf.net, it is now ready to serve as NiL's new unified developer/user community platform. I'm just waiting for the sf.net staff to change the filesystem ownership of egore's old homepage so I can replace it and integrate part of the old content into the wiki.
The Wiki is already accessible at
http://nil.sourceforge.net/wiki/
In other (good) news, right after egore decided to leave NiL, reinforcements were already underway: Brian alias rip-off joined the team! Welcome Brian!!
Keeping you up-to-date,
Alex (0 comments)
