We can either learn it ourselves or find someone who already has the neccesary skill set. As such, it's a non-factor.

5th is totally correct. For Drupal: Knowledge is all it takes. Access is another thing and a problem we need to find a solution for. As for time, we have time, for the time being, meaning if we don't get preoccupied with nonsense, 4 years should get us somewhere.
EDIT: JMB got there first. This post was aimed at the posts prior to his.

 If I understand you well, you would like to have access to source code, and not knowing anything about coding. As you like to say "Abandonia Forums are not democracy", I can say "Abandonia is not open source". Unfortunately

For all the mysticism you seem to perceive in it, programming is just a set of skills. Nothing more, nothing less. The code can be modified in portions. There can be more than a single person working on it. Quote:

Hm actually the Drupal platform, that Abandonia is based on, _is_ open source. :P (All interpreted languages--as opposed to compiled ones--are open source in a way... And AFAIK Drupal is not about writing code, it's a CMS.) Anyway, not really sure how software licencing is relevant here, at any rate. Drupal can be learnt, yes of course. And I guess whoever has access to the server will be able to see and modify Abandonia's Drupal system.

You can try a demo of Drupal here. Just log in to the admin page. The password and login is mentioned on the page. Should give some information on how it works. I had to test it myself for a school project last thursday. Its kind of a complicated and it takes time to learn, or thats what I've said to my teacher when he asked my opinion of it. |

Studentis and kosta might have added a lot of extra modules to support the things abandonia needs. The move to drupal took several months of coding.
I think Romano was trying to tell you that the Studentis might not be very willing to give you access to their written modules for abandonia.
