Clients past ROF in the Future?

[Shin Noir]

To suppliment the above mostly, or clear up:

We used to use CD's to snapshot when we would create a supported client. But, EQ turned to digital form.
ROF2 is a snapshot in the steam repository they still have to this day, so it's easy enough to get a rof2 snapshot.
Another snapshot that was randomly made was a TDS client snapshot. TDS is newer than ROF, but not by much. There's actually a discord channel talking about TDS support and some minor effort towards supporting it.

Since that TDS snapshot, however, they've basically ironed out the kinks and keep doing rolling patches. Since there's no real snapshot for us to easily pivot on, it's difficult to officially say when and where we're going to anchor for the next release.

Plus, it's a ton of work.. we're still struggling to keep up with everything in ROF2! And, well, newer clients aren't as interesting. look at p99! It's been on velious for many years with no real plans to go beyond. So, yeah.. all these factors make us freeze where we are.
