Preferred bugtracking channel?

[Evert Vorster]

Hi there, Eugen.

Nice to see you are still in this project!

I'll use the preferred channel.
Please understand that I won't be able to donate much of my time, but at
the very least I will be able to properly describe the issues that I am
having. Also, I fully understand that this is a volunteer project and won't
throw any hissy fits if the issues that I am having are not attended to.

I have been donating a little of my time to the Vega Strike project and
learned a little C++, so I might actually be able to submit a patch or two
if there is an issue that really bugs me.

Kind regards.
