Yeah, very good idea :).

We'll definately do that - in v0.4 :).  Most people wouldn't need to
change the configuration anyway.

Sure. We can do that, although I personally find it quite annoying. I
never read those readme's anyway, unless I run into problems. But it
wouldn't be a big deal.

Well, I imagine the avarage gamer has at least basic knowledge of what's
going on. But maybe I'm just too optimistic again. But should we ever
release some developer quotes, that'll be a good one :).


Anyway, looks like everything is fine so far. I'll take care of your
