It seems like source code releases are good for our publicity. Maybe it's time to start other campaigns for the older Civ games.

hooray for Poly 
What other game source codes haven't been released yet? 
(We shouldn't do this with EVERY game though. Publishers will start viewing Apolyton as "the site where our profits come to die at the hands of code-hungry dorks" )

Any publicity is good publicity.
