Due to our fearless leader being otherwise engaged, the May Newsletter has been
cancelled completed overtime & over-budget (http://www.hard-light.net/news/article/hlp-newsletter-may-2015) by MjnMixael and myself, enjoy!
(oh and yeah, could a kind admin please move this to the announcements board as I don't have the permissions to post there)

What do you mean it's May already?
-
Indeed, May newsletter is posted in May :)

I told you guys that sequestrating Axem would have side effects. You can't just kidnap someone, have him FRED missions for you and write a full newsletter!
Anyway, excellent interview, glad we got more insight into Mister Subspace Strikes - makes me want to do a modding dive during the upcoming week-end.
Not much in the campaign area, but oh gods how much stuff happened code-wise. As a github user myself, I can now see basically everything the SCP does, which is neat :P

That reminds me, I need to get back to the work I was doing.
Also learn more art since my monkey brain never learned to code.

Nice job, sorryto hear about the budget problems...
Reminde me what I've to do to get in the newsletter with Of Shivans and Men? - I'm currently very pressed for time and can't actuallly develop a strategy to promote myself (and the appearent lack of interest is affecting my drive to finish)....
ps. Greetings from the last day of re:publica 2015 in wonderful Berlin :)

Hmm... trying something for the interview formatting... pardon any temporary oddness.

Ok, after much hair-pulling, I think I've gotten something I like. Newsletter-posters, pay attention:
There's a new text field when you're posting a newsletter, called "Interview". Use that for interviews. Format interviews as a big unordered list. The site will style the even list items in one style and color, and the odd list items in another style and color. Because of the even/odd styling, the only requirement for using this new Interviews content field is that you never have consecutive list items belonging to the same person.
Do this:
- Person A: blah blah
- Person B: Foo
- Person A: Bar
- Person B: Baz.
DON'T do this:
- Person A: blah blah
- Person B: Foo
- Person B: And BTW, yadda
- Person A: Bar
- Person B: Baz.
Enjoy! Bug reports to me OFC. :)

Nice!

A hearty thanks to niffiwan and mjn for pulling this off. :) I was moving to a new place and I've only started to recently have time again to do fun things. (And thank you Sandwich for that, makes reading interviews a lot better!)

Give some good meaty posts about the work you're doing. I did see you did post some in-campaign quotes, but I suppose that's just barely under the bar for a mention. I think things like background fluff, your experiences, screenshots or showing off gameplay with videos makes it a whole lot more likely to get a mention. We really try to mention any progress but it can be hard when its a very short post.
