Another mod to fork I guess...

Moved to https://codeberg.org/Dacmot/minetest-laptop.git

I am the main developer for Lua-site of the mod. Wrote the Laptop-OS and the most apps. Gerold part is the models, textures and organizational tasks. If Gerold is giving up the mod, from my point of view the mod should be moved into any maintenance organization like "minetest-mods".

My fork https://github.com/bell07/minetest-laptop is still there, so I can trigger the transfer into organization if you agree. Of course I will continue to support the mod in case of issues in any case.

The difference in my fork and the Gerolds version is: I did not merged the "browser_app" into master, because of incomplete from my point of view. I did not looked into the mod for times, therefore maybe my fork needs to be updated first, before transfer

That's a better idea. I agree that adding it to minetest-mods would be the best solution.

dacmot commented 6 months ago

Hmmm. https://github.com/Gerold55 is back...

@bell07 just a reminder, when you have the time (no rush), would you please review/update your fork and transfer the ownership to minetest-mods? Thanks!

I compared both forks. All my last changes are all in Gerold55 version. But the current Gerold version contains more features:

Maybe better idea is to use Gerold version and add some additional Whnot related web-pages (The rules for example) using Browser app (laptop.register_view(browser_page = true), see API.md)

I think it is better if @Gerold55 transfer his Fork into mintest-mods. @Gerold55, what do you think? I cannot support you anymore in lua, since I am away from Minetest. the mintest-mods group have experienced developers (like sfence) that can support you in case of lua related issues.

By the way, did anyone of you experienced this issue: https://github.com/Gerold55/laptop/issues/146 I tried it shortly, and cannot get the issue
