Hard time finding time following Sinbads blog

I miss the Ogre dev. entries in Sinbads blog.

Me too. I'm always interested in the way how Steve solves particular design challenges.

It results from the fact that I have less Ogre time these days - on account of the fact that during the daytime, despite giving up my old job, I've found I have to earn a living working on projects that use Ogre (which I can't talk about) rather than Ogre itself, which doesn't pay at all - in fact it costs me

. Ogre's back to being a fun passtime, but I've scaled it back a fair bit compared to years gone by so I can have a life and pursue other interests too. It's not the only thing in my life anymore

Most of my Ogre time goes into maintenance rather than brand spanking new features these days - that in itself takes up most of the time I have for it. But, I had planned to blog about the feature I added yesterday - not huge, but useful I think.

So, you are in square One...

Well, at least you are working using your baby project (Ogre), and can fix/add features while working on the side projects - that's what I would like to be at... Personally, I like that you spend more time testing Ogre in trenches, thus polishing it, I dont care about new features - Ogre is good enough already in it's current state and the featured project gallery is proving that

Well, it's kinda frustrating actually since I have a ton of ideas I'd like to implement - hence the v2.0 page which I now have no idea when I'm going to get to, if I'm going to get to them at all. But hey, that's life. As you say, at least I get to make a living using it, and opportunities do arise to add things as part of my job occasionally.

A ton of ideas but not even remotely enough time to even think of implementing them... I can *so* relate to that.
