How do you define "work"? To me "working for someone" means being on the payroll, getting a regular salary and various other statutory entitlements.
If you use that definition, the answer is no.
My guess is also that Raven's view on any situation is
very different from anybody else's. I present the
unicode argument from a few weeks ago as evidence.
Call me harsh, but I can't ignore it any more. It would be an injustice to myself and the rest of humankind to carry on brushing it under the carpet. Especially when
he's telling new users he's busy putting U5.9 together. Where I come from, that's disrespect for the hard working people who are doing the work.
By the way, Raven, it's Monday. Where's the newsletter and your Xbox Controller add-on? Oh, and your Milkshape exporter is a week overdue, you promised it for the 17th. I guess that means your Maya exporter is also on hold for now?

OK, it's time to draw a line under my rant. I admit I'm probably out of order and for that I apologise to the community. In my defence, I received a mail from Raven that got me started on this. Further to my defence, and just to acknowledge that this is actually on topic, here's a summary of what Raven has told us in this exact thread, enjoy...
Quote: "Hopefully I would like to work with Mike over the comming weeks to develop a Collision & Dynamics Body Extension(s) to the DBO Format.
++++++++++++++++++++++
Need to do some testing of things tonight, but the plan is to send Mike the new ODE (Open Source), Milkshape 3D Plug-In (Open Source), and DBO SDK tomorrow morning.
++++++++++++++++++++++
I'll have time after that to tie in the current ODE Beta 1 (which works here) with the DBP Collision System ready for the morning release (god knows if it's Beta 4 or Candidate 2) of 5.9
++++++++++++++++++++++
Update 5.9 Release is currently planned for sometime this week; most likely the later half
++++++++++++++++++++++
Could see about upgrading the manual
++++++++++++++++++++++
Yeah, I know. If I have time, I'll be throwing together some basic documents just to cover new functions
++++++++++++++++++++++
the plan is to ship Update 6.0 Beta Build 601 at the end of the month. With it will be documentation and examples for *ALL* functions not currently getting this treatment
++++++++++++++++++++++
5.9 will be released Friday (definate) and Monday (officially)
++++++++++++++++++++++
At times you get the feeling that it's like the company is like an uncoordinated Donkey
(Nice going Raven!!!!)
++++++++++++++++++++++
Technically the only thing really waiting for the 5.9 release is, well for it to be released
++++++++++++++++++++++
I should be working on ODE and the "other" thing right now
++++++++++++++++++++++
Ravey is stil jealous I got his old job
++++++++++++++++++++++
from what I knew the Update was due out today. It's what we had agreed upon
++++++++++++++++++++++
before it's officially released with the newsletter Monday
++++++++++++++++++++++
it would've made more sense for him to have been working on some the things I was (programming wise) and had me sort out the model pack
++++++++++++++++++++++
