The WinBolo source code is now available to download.

It can be downloaded from http://winbolo.googlecode.com or from http://www.winbolo.org

A wiki has been setup on http://www.winbolo.org

The source code includes the complete source code to WinBolo client & server, LinBolo client
& server, Tracker, Log viewer, WBN game ranking website, JBolo alpha/prototype,
WOME (CGI based map editor) and sample brains created.

A development forum has been setup.

----------------------

From the top level readme:

Here is the complete source code to WinBolo client & server, LinBolo client
& server, Tracker, Log viewer, WBN game ranking website, JBolo alpha/prototype,
WOME (CGI based map editor) and sample brains created.

License
=======
All source files code copyright 1998-2008 John Morrison and released under the
GNU GPL Version 2 except where noted. All graphic and sound files are copyright
1993 Stuart Cheshire.

Source code for WinBolo was taken from the 1.15 release possibly with additional
fixes.

Why?
====
I had always stated my main reason for not open sourcing WinBolo is that I still
had things I wanted to work on. I said that I would consider releasing it when I
wasn't interested in working on it any more. I've never lost interest in working
on WinBolo, however as life goes on I have come to accept the fact I will never
have enough time to work on the things I wanted to. Rather then let the community
die due to inaction from me I have decided to release the source to WinBolo and
all WinBolo related things.

I started this project 10 years ago. The first WinBolo release was 9 years ago.
This was my second "real" sized project in C. (WBN was my first PHP application
as well) - The code is fairly easy to follow and commented. Hopefully this allows
others to pick up the project and continue with it, or use it as a learning tool.

I have started a wiki at http://www.winbolo.org/ with more information on the
design, network protocol and file formats. A list of project ideas are also
listed there.

Thanks to

I'm no coder, but love the fact that Winbolo is open source. That allows continued improvements from passionate players, and takes some of the work away from the creator.

Good stuff. Now I just need to learn some new coding languages!

Really happy to see such useful creation. WinBolo is really the best, I am talking about this at my work at Car Detailers Chicago.

Oh, let me add this, WinBolo is also the lunch talk with my friends who were working at Pressure Washing Port St. Lucie. The word also spread from our company' sister company called Power Washing Tallahassee
