hi there,
first of i would like to say, through the creation of this game and through choosing to do so the GPL way we will soon have the best strategy known to wo/man.
i would like to point out the blender foundation to you guys.
http://www.blender3d.org
and to think a little bit about supporting opensource tools whiles you are in the go of creating a opensource game, i read in some thread about a new unit format, and i was thinking about a plugin perhaps.
as a thanks for a linux port you will have the support of the whole linux community for the following years as long as you treat them as you would your own.
i have already heard the rumble in the jungle.
"i can still remember the first time i beat a friend in TA, in his basement..."
and as a good start for my linux community i was/have been thinking about creating a package (like a windows installer) for the game but am wondering about the datafile, is it allowed to distrubate?
it will not contain the datafile, it will only download it, much like a script would.
our community has for a looong looong time wanted a game that would be worth spending time on, there arent that many good linux games around, and imho this game will be what i have wanted for a long while.
on a personal note, i would like to announce that i am more then happy to help out with any artwork requests you may have, i was hopeing to help out with the gui art perhaps, or splashscreens or whatever.
"i have entred taspring.clan-sy.com as my browser starting page."
bla blabla bla

Yes but the networking is not yet working and so are other parts. Either that, or the linux port mailing list is not actively reporting enough 
I don't know how far AI loading goes already, in case the AI code is already connected to the SharedLib interface, you should try compiling one of the global AI's. I know at least mine should easily compile on gcc, I defined macros for all the known compiler differences.(except for the WINAPI define, that should be changed to nothing when building on linux...)
