The project now has a task board which shows a list of available tasks, small jobs, that currently would bring the project forward. This list will be updated continuously and allows the cooperation of many contributors as well as planning ahead. In the Community Forum we also have a task center discussion thread associated with the task board.
The idea is to constantly break up the big step of developing a full strategy game in many smaller steps and present them in a way that everyone can see what needs to be done next as well as can serve himself to a task or two.
