There's nothing speaking against it. Actually, it'll be helpful, as I
don't need to keep the copy on my two boxes in sync manually. I'll add it
after lunch.

I guess you can play an incomplete game without suffering too much (except
that you'll have to replay some parts once it is complete). But if you
would see the whole plot in advance, it's practically like a walkthrough.
So the plot should be kept private.

Okay, we could do that then. 

Btw, what title should the v0.4 demo have? Uzdun'kal? OTOH, that's only
the location at the very beginning. Any ideas? (Not that it would really
matter at the moment ;)).

Right. We'll also need to have our own graphics first. ;)
