-<b>Fixes in Server Code</b>
-<font color="#0000ff">2013-09-28</font>
-<p/>
-As you might have found out we had another restart yesterday.
-<p/>
-Most of the changes for this restart are under the hood: this was
-a Server Code release. Meaning the server's software was
-changed but not the content. Hence user-facing changes are minimal,
-but we'll outline below what's relevant.
-<p/>
-The restart didn't work as smoothly as expected but we
-are working hard on fixing all the issues which turned up.
-<p/>
-Currently known bugs that affect players:<ul>
-    <li>None</li></ul>
-<p/>
-Other bugs:<ul>
-    <li>GM logs are now full-buffered (faster) instead of line-buffered.</li>
-    <li>Admin documentation is wrong.</li></ul>
-<p/>
-Fixed bugs:<ul>
-    <li>Problems with startup speed (possibly not new, fixed anyway).</li>
-    <li>Guildbot wouldn't start.</li>
-    <li>Some accounts and storages with corrupted items were deleted.</li>
-    <li>You can turn every direction except right.</li>
-    <li>Inability to trade, except when naked.</li>
-    <li>Warp bug related to the new Orum/Waric quest.</li>
-    <li>Elemental bonus/malus not applied to magic.</li>

-<b>Announcing Code update - Introducing Dark Magic</b>
-<font color="#0000ff">2013-09-03</font>
-<p/>
-<font color="#919191">First, a technical announcement. During a future
-restart, TMW will start requiring your username
-to exactly match the case that you signed up with.
-<p/>
-Previously, this was enforced erratically, and led
-to people losing access to their accounts. If, after
-the update, you are unsure of the case of the account
-<font color="#ff0000">and have already tried lowercase, UPPERCASE, and TitleCase,</font>
-please contact o11c or Frost.
-<p/>
-Now, back to your regularly scheduled content news.</font>
-<p/>
-Today we have introduced two new pieces.
-<p/>
-First of all, the Orum extension is finished.
-Orum and his master Waric have set a new base
-to mess with Sagatha. Seek them out! They
-hide somewhere in the Caves north of Sagatha's
-Forests.
-<p/>
-Someone has seen a few new spells being used.
-No one is yet sure what exactly it is but a dark aura
-has been percieved somewhere north of Hurnscald.
-Find it! Maybe you can gain something useful!
-<p/>
-Last but not least we have to announce bad news
-for the project but good news for her:
-Jenalya has, after finishing the Orum extension,
-resigned from her position as Lead Content
-Developer. We dedicate this news to her and
-wish her only the very best for her future. She
-contributed beyond words and her leaving
-will leave a spot we will have to work hard to fill.
-Wushin and tux9th took over as Lead Content Developers
-and give their best to bring quality content to you,
-like Jenalya did.

-<b>Wushin overhauled caves, Ferry now goes to Nivalis</b>
-<font color="#0000ff">2013-06-29</font>
-<p/>
-This release brings a few new additions to the game:
-<p/>
-Wushin overhauled the desert caves with an awesome
-new cave tileset. Also the sewers below Tulimshar are
-now accessible. Make sure to check them out!
-<p/>
-Malivox took the occasion to stop camping in the
-desert and moved into a small house south of
-Tulimshar.
-<p/>
-Frozenbeard has expanded his ferry service in
-Nivalis. You can now go between Nivalis and
-the other major docks both ways. Proper docks for
-Nivalis are being worked on.
-<p/>
-With a ferry now serving Nivalis, Dyrin will send you
-somehwere else in Kaizei instead, away from Nivalis.
-<p/>
-As usual there are also a lot of smaller fixes and
-changes. Thanks to everyone who reported issues
-and helped fix these things!

-<b>Double Exp and Drop Weekend</b>
-<font color="#0000ff">2013-06-07</font>
-<p/>
-This weekend we're temporarily doubling both the
-experience rate and the drop rates for all monsters,
-to give the chance to recover from the rollback
-we had due to filesystem corruption.
-<p/>
-There are also some bug fixes and new content:
-<p/>
-The craftsmen of Tulimshar have finally moved to the
-renovated Forge at the Northern Market, so the
-Wizard's Inn is back to offering a calm stay for visitors.
-<p/>
-In the woodland area the mysterious Evil Obelisk which
-summons beings from the astral plane for the mundane
-price of gold has drastically reduced its demands.
-<p/>
-On the technical side, in case of network congestion,
-you will no longer be kicked with an invalid packet error.

-We had a server crash, and had to restore everything from offline backup.
-<p/>
-34 hours were lost, from about 17:30 (UTC) on 4 June to about 03:30 on 6 June. This affects the game, the forums, and the wiki.
-<p/>
-We're going to set up hourly offsite backups of game, forum, and wiki data so that future outages are less painful.

-We're having a bugfix release today.
-<p/>
-The main areas that have been fixed are Brodomir's PvP Cave
-and Orum's quest, both in the
-caves below Hurnscald.
-<p/>
-Additionally, there were a lot of small fixes
-on maps, spelling and grammar, and more.

-<b>Easter Event and Miley's Hero</b>

-<p/>
-Today we have a content release.
-<p/>
-As always there are a number of bugfixes,
-but also two new quests.
-<p/>
-One of them is an annual Easter event created by Pjotr Orial.
-It lasts from March, 22th to April, 25th, and can be
-repeated every year.
-Watch out around Hurnscald for some hidden Easter Eggs!
-<p/>
-The other quest is about the admiration of a little
-girl in Hurnscald that sees you growing from an
-inexperienced adventurer to an impressive hero.
-Backstage, this was also about a great community effort.
-veryape conceived of the idea for this quest and was able
-to make it happen with the help of many people who were
-assisting with the graphics, scripting, spell checking,
-testing and giving valuable feedback.
-<p/>
-Lastly, Brodomir's cave under Hurnscald has been made
-easier for attracting fighters from all over the world.

-We will undoubtedly experience an influx of both
-ordinary players and potential developers since we
-were linked as a related project.
-<p/>
-As a developer, it is my goal and expectation that
-new players can figure things out on their own.
-After all, I once did - though there wasn't as
-much content back then (I feel old ...).
-<p/>
-As for new contributors, they will necessarily need
-to coordinary with us, the developers. We're always
-in need of pixel artists, have great capacity for
-quest writers, and currently have need for a bit of
-web development and people crazy enough to touch
-insides of the server code.

-<b>ManaPlus - new official Client</b>
-<font color="#0000ff">2013-01-31</font>
-<p/>
-ManaPlus Support
-<p/>
-We have decided to support ManaPlus as an
-official client alongside Mana. In fact, since
-there will likely be no more releases of the
-Mana client that supports TMWA (this server),
-there will inevitably be a time when ManaPlus
-becomes the only supported client.
-<p/>
-Mana 0.6.1 will continue to receive some
-support until October 2013. We have no plans
-to specifically break compatibility with Mana,
-but new features may not be available.
-<p/>
-For older clients (whether Mana or ManaPlus),
-there will be different levels of attempted
-support, depending on exactly how old it is:
-<p/>
-* Less than 6 months old: will not crash or
-    behave erratically.
-* Less than 2 months old: will behave
-    expectedly, but might not support all features.
-* Last 2 releases: will do everything,
-    correctly, on the main server.
-* Last release, or even git, may be required
-    on the test server.
-<p/>
-Of course, if a particular client release is
-buggy, we may not be able to support it at all.
-<p/>
-For more details, see <a href="http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&amp;t=16867">http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&amp;t=16867</a>.

-The roadblock to the north east in Argaes was finally lifted
-and parts of the road were reconstructed.
-But there is still some work left until the connection to Port City is done.
-In the Woods you can find a guy who lives alone, seeking seclusion.
-Be careful not to disturb him. He is very vicious.

-The smith's apprentice Peter does good progress in mastering his

-An old veteran has set up camp in the caves below Hurnscald
-after a life full of hardship and battle.
-He may be old now, but he surely didn't lose his interest
-in the art of combat!

-##7Wushin overhauled caves, Ferry now goes to Nivalis##0
-##32013-06-29##0
- 
-This release brings a few new additions to the game:
- 
-Wushin overhauled the desert caves with an awesome
-new cave tileset. Also the sewers below Tulimshar are
-now accessible. Make sure to check them out!
- 
-Malivox took the occasion to stop camping in the
-desert and moved into a small house south of
-Tulimshar.
- 
-Frozenbeard has expanded his ferry service in
-Nivalis. You can now go between Nivalis and
-the other major docks both ways. Proper docks for
-Nivalis are being worked on.
- 
-With a ferry now serving Nivalis, Dyrin will send you
-somehwere else in Kaizei instead, away from Nivalis.
- 
-As usual there are also a lot of smaller fixes and
-changes. Thanks to everyone who reported issues
-and helped fix these things!

-##32013-06-07##0
- 
-This weekend we're temporarily doubling both the
-experience rate and the drop rates for all monsters,
-to give the chance to recover from the rollback
-we had due to filesystem corruption.
- 
-There are also some bug fixes and new content:
- 
-The craftsmen of Tulimshar have finally moved to the
-renovated Forge at the Northern Market, so the
-Wizard's Inn is back to offering a calm stay for visitors.
- 
-In the woodland area the mysterious Evil Obelisk which
-summons beings from the astral plane for the mundane
-price of gold has drastically reduced its demands.
- 
-On the technical side, in case of network congestion,
-you will no longer be kicked with an invalid packet error.

-##32013-06-05##0
- 
-We had a server crash, and had to restore everything from offline backup.

-34 hours were lost, from about 17:30 (UTC) on 4 June to about 03:30 on 6 June. This affects the game, the forums, and the wiki.
- 
-We're going to set up hourly offsite backups of game, forum, and wiki data so that future outages are less painful.

-##32013-03-21##0
- 
-Today we have a content release.
- 
-As always there are a number of bugfixes,
-but also two new quests.
- 
-One of them is an annual Easter event created by Pjotr Orial.
-It lasts from March, 22th to April, 25th, and can be
-repeated every year.
-Watch out around Hurnscald for some hidden Easter Eggs!
- 
-The other quest is about the admiration of a little
-girl in Hurnscald that sees you growing from an
-inexperienced adventurer to an impressive hero.
-Backstage, this was also about a great community effort.
-veryape conceived of the idea for this quest and was able
-to make it happen with the help of many people who were
-assisting with the graphics, scripting, spell checking,
-testing and giving valuable feedback.
- 
-Lastly, Brodomir's cave under Hurnscald has been made
-easier for attracting fighters from all over the world.

-We will undoubtedly experience an influx of both

-were linked as a related project.
- 
-As a developer, it is my goal and expectation that

-After all, I once did - though there wasn't as
-much content back then (I feel old ...).
- 
-As for new contributors, they will necessarily need

-in need of pixel artists, have great capacity for
-quest writers, and currently have need for a bit of

-##7ManaPlus - new official Client##0
-##32013-01-31##0
- 
-ManaPlus Support
- 
-We have decided to support ManaPlus as an
-official client alongside Mana. In fact, since
-there will likely be no more releases of the
-Mana client that supports TMWA (this server),
-there will inevitably be a time when ManaPlus
-becomes the only supported client.
- 
-Mana 0.6.1 will continue to receive some
-support until October 2013. We have no plans
-to specifically break compatibility with Mana,
-but new features may not be available.
- 
-For older clients (whether Mana or ManaPlus),
-there will be different levels of attempted
-support, depending on exactly how old it is:
- 
-* Less than 6 months old: will not crash or
-    behave erratically.
-* Less than 2 months old: will behave
-    expectedly, but might not support all features.
-* Last 2 releases: will do everything,
-    correctly, on the main server.
-* Last release, or even git, may be required
-    on the test server.
- 
-Of course, if a particular client release is
-buggy, we may not be able to support it at all.
