Game Library
GL 93: Determine why some file uploads timeout
This issue has been quite the odyssey. We’ve determined from testing that the culprit is our reverse proxy, which is Apache; the plan now is to swap out Apache for Caddy, which should perform better.
Maintenance
Review a few PRs for 3.7.21
This is a lower priority than finishing the demo or solving GL 93.
Near-term forecast
Once the above V4 Demo tasks are complete, I intend to publish the demo for public comment.
It may be several months before I return to any game library issues. If there are module library issues you want addressed sooner, please consider volunteering to help with them.
Game library Issues may be found in the issue tracker. Most of them are underdescribed at the moment, so the first step would be asking for a better description. Especially for the frontend issues, we could use pointers to examples of good design.
