Rees Noturana wrote:How is this different from the "Jesus Features" that CCP vowed to never do again? Just smaller stuff under one common theme? What if a theme needs a really big change to make worthwhile? Nice to see you supporting the Enablers, although I prefer the term Makers and Breakers. 
We can still do big things and long term things that take more than one release, because we can have a single theme run across multiple releases - and ship the "big" thing in the second or third release on a theme - or just silently work on shipping preparation features for a bigger change, like how the refactoring of Crimewatch was done, before we made any real changes to the related features.
I think a "Jesus feature" means some single huge feature that is believed to be THE solution to either growing or fixing the game - and that's what we want to never do again. But we can still do big changes to the game - just with a clear idea of what we're trying to achieve with them, and a realistic set of expectations for what they will bring to the game.

Working on it! :) At least on releasing CREST. Have some legal dragons to slay still, we're taking those source code requirements out of the license for example. Technical Producer CCP Games Reykjavik |

We listen in many places and to lots of data, and no single stakeholder (including the internal ones) gets to define the agenda. The CSM notes from the "Second Decade" session from the summit will have some more detail on how I see what we should do - keep an eye out for that one.

But how about fixing the current API.
- Implement a proper cache, so we don't have to look at 119s on the killlog for example - Add missing end points (Indexes, FW Progression, Incursions, Faction Info, Alliance Info, Station Details) - Making it less unstable, maybe add an extra server or two to power it
And on the CREST side of things
- ability to interface with the CHAT system (as in, sending and recieving chat messages from channels and people live, so we can build an IRC/JABBER/WHATEVER gateway)
Oh and, come onto IRC in #eve-dev and stay around. Esp. if you actually mean you want to help the 3rd party devs give more tools to the players.
Anyway, you'll probably never read this, so why am i even bothering.. *sigh*
We are indeed adding a cache to the API, but I know it is not getting the love it should. Before I was working on the pure tech side and could not directly influence these priorities, but calling out "Enablers" in my new job is one way of putting real focus on people who do this both in and out of game, and make priorities accordingly. Can't promise overnight miracle change, but I organized the Devtrack at Fanfest and made sure CREST took the path it did because I do believe 3rd party developers are a huge value to the community, and I want to support that. Now I am in a better position to do that.
(I'll try and drop by IRC every once in a while to say hi and listen to feedback, but my productivity is destroyed if I am online all the time, so I have to turn of my irc client most of the time) Senior Producer, EVE Online Development CCP Games Reykjavik |

We'll have that in place by the time we write the rules, but we're still a fair ways from that point atm. Game Designer | Team Five-0 https://twitter.com/CCP_Fozzie |
