	XMPB is a multi player space combat game for X-terms.  We 
(Shane Hyde and myself) released a version late last year to get
some feedback. Due to lots of great feedback, we have finally
got a new version up and running, which has all the features that
we envisioned it would (and extras :^) 
	
	We would greatly appreciate it, if we could get some people 
out there to Beta test this version for us.  If you are interested,
Mail me:  ddp@deakin.edu.au  and tell me what specifications your
system runs under.  From these we will hopefully cover as many 
systems as we can.

	When giving your system specifications, tell me your:

	- X11 Revision (and vendor if you know it)
	- Whether you are running a colour machine or not
	- What hardware platform you are using
	- Whether you are using a terminal or workstation
	- How much memory you have
	- And of course, anything you think I should know.


	For those who have seen our earlier version, some of the changes
we have made are:

   	- Save files.
    - Shop.
    - NPC's and compiler.
    - better Imakefile.
    - more weapons.
    - more consistent qualities of items.
    - Speed increase.
    - Clean quitting.
    - CTRL-C trapping.
    - Fixed collision routines.
    - Keys may be used instead of the mouse buttons.
    - Keys may be configured by resources.


Cheers,
Damien
