I also understand Japanese, so if you need anything translated let me know.
 
Angband/65 progress track:
* Apr 25, 2009 : 71 open tickets, 55 closed.  I suppose this counts as progress. I am hopeful that I will be on schedule for the alpha1 release - but there isn't going to be much time to spare.
* Apr 26, 2009 : 77 open tickets, 58 closed.  Ever felt you're going backwards? ;-)  Did some fairly drastic hacking out of obsolete (from my perspective) code and have just started putting back the replacements.  It's going to be a long job.
* Apr 27, 2009 : 84 open tickets, 58 closed.  OK, that doesn't look like much progress from yesterday but I'm half way through a major update.  I might finally have the spell system working tomorrow! (Maybe).
* Apr 28, 2009 : That was overly optimistic.  Maybe tomorrow, this time?
* Apr 29, 2009 : 82 open tickets, 64 closed.  Beginning to doubt that I'll ever get the /64 spell system implemented. :-/
* May 2, 2009 : Lost a couple of days downloading, installing, and getting (slightly) used to Linux.  At least I'll be able to check that Angband/65 can be compiled and run in Linux now.
* May 4, 2009 : Made a bit of progress.  However I suspect that I will not make the alpha 1 release date. :-/
* May 5, 2009 : Slowly getting the spell system sorted out.  (Slowed down a bit by a cold at the moment).  Should be able to cross a few tickets off the list tomorrow.
* May 6, 2009 : 81 open tickets, 70 closed.  At this rate I may just make the deadline, but there aren't any easy tickets left.
* May 8, 2009 : 86 open tickets, 75 closed.  Found some nasty bugs. :-(  Fixed one not-so-nasty bug.
* May 10, 2009 : 78 open tickets, 82 closed.  Who-hoo!  Now more closed tickets than open. ;-)  As you can see I've done a bit of tidying up of old tickets that could just be closed off as well as implemented some genuine features (such as support for tactic and movement types).
* May 11, 2009 : Vanilla Angband 1379 brought with it a nasty bug to Angband/65 that (apparently) only shows up in certain circumstances (but I'm not sure which).  In the end I decided to reverse the 'bugfix' 1379.  Also I took a break from Angband/65 and submitted an artifact suggestion to Vanilla Angband.  See [http://angband.oook.cz/forum/showthread.php?p=18879 The Large Metal Shield of the Sun].  Hope it gets in.
* May 12, 2009 : Made some real progress today - you can now cast spells!  Unfortunately I also found some more bugs to fix.
* May 16, 2009 : Been a while since my last update here.  Only 10 more open tickets left in the "Alpha 1" milestone.  Unfortunately there are a heck of a lot of tickets waiting for me for the Alpha 2 milestone now. ^ ^)v
* May 21, 2009 : In a shock move I'm considering suspending work on Angband/65 and starting a new project to make a Japanese version of Angband 3.1.1 - [[JBand]].
 
As always anybody interested in assisting, would you please contact me.  There is plenty of work for people of all levels of experience.
