hi guys, first of all, thank you for the intention, i wanna share with you something:

we (because i have a team of 4 people developing) have an organization already https://github.com/ComunidadRean with 7 private repos, yes, we've decided recently to go on into private, but we wanna expand the project in the same way you're thinking.

So, the "thing" in my team is like this:

1. we choose a tc revision base (yes a base, because trinity core has many unstable changes recently) and over that we "load" the most part of our patches (already we have 189 patches) that we've been applying in order to achieve the some features in the core like you know xD the basics and MORE:

-Features in the core like, warden, abbot, rates weekend(new), ac1, vip accounts, jail, and som hooks
-Features on playability like some fixes on vehicles, arenas, dynlos, bgs, exploits, buffs and stacks, pets, arpen, resilience (soon this one), binary resistance(dev)
-Features on instances/dungeons to achieve 24/25 maps fully working, yes ulduar is 10/14 bosses working so dev/patch is needed yet (we have already one but is pretty outdated 14/14), the rest as you might know, icc is fully working with trash mobs (this we improved again three days ago and is amazing) and my gunship branch implementation in beta phase, gauntlet event (dev) and ramparts event (dev), ruby sanctum (this patch you have, exactly the same), halls of reflection as i mentioned before, and many many more. If you wanna se is right on http://www.wowrean.es/.
-Features due to improve some spells: paladin, druid, priest, mage, warrior, and etc, here we've thinking on giving more support but we have not so many people working on it.
-Feaures on Quests and Events, this part we've been fixing a lot in this weeks in order to achieve the minimum factions working: hodir, ebonblade, wrymrest accord, queldelar/shadowmourne, kirintor, kalu ak.
-And customs / locales related to the localization of our server

2. We develop based on OUR base rev, rev chosed on 1, during a while, always we change the core every 2-3 months or every we the lead team consider necessary due to a REAL benefit to our community, yo know pretty much new things, pretty unstable is not the best choice. And we develop with the patches system, in order to managing our OWN fixes and load it AFTER all the tc commits on order to achieve stability and a clear organization to our work.

---- Facts:
a. You @gin88 and @silverteddy are managing wow servers that are NOT my competence, why? simply, idiom, i manage spanish server, you manage italian and, german server. None of my people will be going into a german server for example because the speaking language in first place xD.

b.We have medium communities, i manage a 500pj community and you? why I'm asking this? simple, maybe, we can achieve a "common" login server, why? it will be really cool to see 3 REALMS on 3 languages (ike ofi, yeah I'm crazy) aiming to have a LARGE multiple language, comunity between us.

c. We can develop around this proposed base, united we can achieve something bigger as you said, and i have a core/patches already developed, if you wanna join ill be very glad, despite of the circumstances, you seems to be very respectful people and loyal, thats the most important thing before coding and something else.

d. We have right now the tc 24/12/2011 as the base tc, and our next update on live servers will be this month, updating to 09/02/2012 tc (one before tc dynvmaps) we considered the circumstances and the advantages/disadvantages to this, and well be very glad if you wanna test it, this 2 weeks we have a very large test planification in order to manage some other important errors/crashes/exploits. Why I'm sharing this with you? because our next base is on that rev of february as a info of interest.

So.......... What do you think? let me know, if you aggre i can add you to the organization to my developing-core team and give you some info about what is next to develop in order to not waste time doing things that i already have. and possibly yo have that i haven't. Im very confident with my work, its very clean, documented and always try to improve, knowing how the core really works is an advantage to me :)

Regards
Eilo
