Re: Article draft: Fleet Commander

Hi Paul.

Ok. The thing here is the article was written a year ago, and now could be
very inaccurate because of several changes that happened since that.

I'm currently "finishing" some bits of the project and if you want I could
rewrite the article when this is done.

I will take in account what you told about not explaining so much theory
and go directly to the real thing.

THanks
