Domain Change Imminent

As our hosting situation has never really sorted itself out, and very little progress is being made on the project right now, I will probably be giving up the opengameconsole.org domain name soon when it comes up for renewal. If any news on the project should emerge you can continue to check here at opengameconsole.blogspot.com

March Update

So just so you know the project's not dead, here's a little update. Still no word from our supposed new host, so still no forums. It's looking like, financially, I won't be able to build my prototype this month like I had hoped...so we remain vaporware a little longer :/

I've been thinking alot about the OS/firmware lately. I'm considering 2 paths right now...go with the traditional unix-style hiearchy and simply add a new /packages/ directory for games and apps installed via our download store. Or the other possibility is to go the brand new GoboLinux-esque route I had planned, but start on a low-level, core distro upon which the "game center" distro (as I'm calling it now) can be built. Option 2 is very interesting/compelling to me...but it will take an immense amount of time, and alot of expertise I do not currently posses, so there's a good chance I'll end up just going with option #1.

I'll post again when there's something worth telling ;)

New site?

Well, I'm not sure if the new site is going to happen just yet after all...I haven't heard back from our new host in quite a few weeks. For now, I will continue to give status updates via this blog, and you can use our old Forumer message boards until things get straightened out.

Just In Time...

At the very last possible minute we have found a new host. The old forum has been backed up, and should transition without any losses if all goes well. We should have a new site up and ready in the next few days.
