SoL 4 is approaching its beta phase

[Lele Gaifax]

Hi all,

as anticipated years ago, I have almost completed the implementation of all
requested features and thus the new SoL version 4 has been deployed to a new
server:

https://sol4.metapensiero.it/

It is currently in alpha stage, meaning that it is NOT stable and it SHOULD
NOT be used for official tournaments yet, although it "contains" all data
imported from the SoL 3 instance.

One of the most invasive changes has been the separation between "players" and
"users": in SoL 4 the "users" able to login and operate are completely
distinct from the "players" participating to tournaments, and are identified
by their email address. For this reason, all old accounts are GONE and anyone
who wish to continue using SoL 4 will have to request me to be registered on
the new site.

The official development sources repository has been moved to Gitlab:

https://gitlab.com/metapensiero/SoL

where you can find a succinct summary of user visible changes:

https://gitlab.com/metapensiero/SoL/blob/master/CHANGES.rst

Unfortunately I do not have the email addresses of old SoL3 user accounts, so
please, should you know any of them, spread the word possibly forwarding this
email to them.

As usual, I would like to thank all the people that helped me with their
suggestions and encouragements!

Thank you and happy carroming!

ciao, lele.
