  Code testing
  
  We have recently implemented a big code-change to the server. We need more eyes to test it.
  Simply install the server, log onto it and report any bugs in our issue tracker, that's worth a lot!

  HTML cleaning
  
  Evennia has a default web presence shipping, supported by Django. The functionality is fine, but the html could really need some cleaning up.

  Testing with postgresql
  
  There seems to be issues with running the server with the postgresql database. It's unclear why this is. The issue is outlined here: http://code.google.com/p/evennia/issues/detail?id=151&colspec=ID%20Summary%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Reporter%20Modified

  What makes the situation sub-optimal?
  Examples:
  
  I don't know how to get started with internationalizing my app.
  
  Bug 392 about printing was filed five years ago, and I don't even know if printing still works.
  
  I want help from a C coder writing a Maildir patch for Alpine.
  
  Note:
  
  If this issue was formally filed on the web, be sure to include the URL.
