[Nel] Announce: NeL 0.1 is officially out

[Vincent Archer]

We are proud to announce the release of the 0.1 version of the NeL
framework. This framework comprises the NeL library, and a basic client
and server source for a simple game called Snowballs. The CVS should be 
updated shortly, and the 0.1 release tagged. We are including the data
files required for the game separately.

If you are following the CVS regularly, you just have to update,
download the data archive, compile and run. Otherwise, you may also
download separately the source tree of the 0.1 release without using
CVS.

NB: The source archives are packages with CVS data, you may use unpack
them and use then CVS to update.

We do not provide a pre-built set of binaries, as the 0.1 release isn't
really representative of the full technology we want to use. The server
has been tested under Linux, and the client under Windows. If you want
to use it, there is a demo server running here, on which the client
connects by default.

For any questions, we have opened a new mailing list dedicated to the
Snowballs demo game, snowballs@nevrax.org (see on the web site for
a subscription page). Questions and reports about the client, server,
or game data themselves should be directed there, while all discussions
on the NeL library itself should remain under the nel@nevrax.org
original mailing list.

The archives may be downloaded there from the main page:
	http://www.nevrax.org/

Note: The zip archive contains the source tree in DOS text format,
whereas the tar.gz archives contains the source in Unix text format.
Both should compile equally well, but one might be easier to edit on
your system.

See you on the snowfields :)
