Hello
I have made some updates to the WAB data files - specifically, added
a file for the new book 'Fall of the West'. I have tried getting in
touch with Mike Marshall, who is listed as the maintainer of the
files, but have not had any response. Do you know whether he is still
involved? I would be happy to take over maintaining these files, but
I don't want to step on anyone's toes!

My updated import file is available on the WABList & ab-files egroups
files areas, called wab08102000.ab

cheers
Edward

Feel free to take over the files. As you've probably guessed from me not
getting back in touch with you I'm just to busy to deal with the files so
consider them yours

Since Mike has officially relinquished responsibility for the files to you,
please do the following:

1. Send me the data files whenever you update them. I'll make sure they get
updated on the Wolf Lair site.

2. Send me the email address you would like me to post on the web-site,
since you're the new "maintainer".

3. If you haven't already, please look into the problem with composition
groups being scrambled for some armies.

4. If you haven't already, please check into the problems with a armies and
accessing their allies.

5. V2.0 has added a few mechanisms that will assist in WAB. For example,
the army lists that had limits on combinations of war machines should now
be able to be modeled better. You might consider revising the files to take
advantage of this.

6. I'm sure folks would appreciate if you switched the validation messages
to use English instead of AB's computer-generated messages. This should be
a very quick and easy process now, so I recommend taking advantage of the
new custom messages facility.

Both #3 and #4 are recurring issues that get reported to me, so I'm
flagging them to your attention. If you could take a look at them when you
get a chance, that would be great. Also, perhaps Mike has assembled a bug
list of some sort with open issues that he can email to you.

Thanks for taking over the files! My suggestions in #5 and #6 are certainly
not required, but I thought you might find them worth pursuing if you want
to enhance the files a bit further. :-)

If you run into any questions or problems while working on the files,
please don't hesitate to ask me questions. I will do my best to offer
suggestions and ideas on how you can leverage AB to accomplish the task.

Thanks, Rob
