Thanks, fixed that issue (used the LinuxVoice podcast rss as a basis :)).

I've been trying to work out the best way to do this, other than manually adding to an RSS feed after I upload the files for the guys, and then approve the article.

Article updated, section that was likely wrong removed. Don't want people to get the wrong idea :)

Quoting: MortenssonI guess it is just the Ubuntu LTS users that have ugraded to 14.04.4 last month. Other is a total of many distros and will remain more or less the same with a move from 14.04.3 to 4.
It could easily be something like that, but then "Other" should show the decrease, which it doesn't. This is why i think there's a reporting error.

"Other" doesn't decrease. 14.04.3 decreases and moves in to other.
Well, possibly. My overall point is we have no idea as they don't let us see any further details :(

I am not reading it wrong, i clearly stated it could just be a bug. I was simply showing what the survey says.
Quoting: liamdaweor their survey had a really big bug this month.
That is the most probable reason, like not showing/counting distributions properly.

Gorky 17, another classic Topware published title now in beta for Linux, uses Wine

Quoting: throghYet this is not the best way: Releasing the source code so that fans could do the port. Why not? There are games like "Arx Fatalis" or "Albion" where this model was used. Even "OpenXcom" uses this! The original files are necessary but the binary is open and free. Regarding "Gorky 17" the port is even today on modern systems functional without no further problems. Topware is only making money again with the title!

OpenXcom was not made from original released source code. It's 100% new code from enthusiastic fans.
