Merry Christmas everyone!



Sometime back in 2003, Rodger Thorm approached me for a copy of my Word DQ =
rules, which were submitted to the files section of this list for all to us=
e/abuse as they see fit.



At the time, I had just started my publishing company (RedBrick) and didn't=
 have time to continue with edits/revisions to that set.



Well, 2011 is upon us. I have had some recent conversations with Eric Goldb=
erg and indicated to him that I was keen to publish a "retro clone" (for wa=
nt of a better term) of DQ, to get it back into print and available (and, m=
ore importantly, more openly supported). Eric doesn't hold any rights to DQ=
, but expressed an interest in how this might progress.



I am keen to assemble a Development Team in the New Year (we do all of our =
game development online) and was wondering who on this list would be intere=
sted?



Before you flood the list with cries of derision or acclaim, please be awar=
e that we are looking for "serious" team members ONLY. Those who are prepar=
ed to give of their time in the name of getting DQ out into the market agai=
n. There won't be financial reward. There won't be groupies or vouchers for=
 hot chocolate. Just hard (but fun!) work.



At RedBrick, we look for "team players" -- you need to be prepared to leave=
 you ego at the door as sometimes decisions are made that you might not agr=
ee with to get products finished, but we do listen to and value all opinion=
s. You need to fit into this mold.



If you are interested, here is the test: Please email me with a short write=
-up with your experience with DQ, your interest in this project (why and ho=
w much effort you think you can realistically commit), and what your expect=
ations are. The cutoff date for expressions of interest is 8 Jan 2011, so g=
et in quick! My email is (change the obvious bits): vestrivan at gmail dot =
com



I look forward to your responses (and some lively discussion on the list).



Kind regards,



James Sutton (nee James Flowers)

Managing Director

RedBrick LLC
