When it's done! ^_

Seriously the Ardb Team are volunteers, so we cannot guarantee any release schedule.

Q? Will Ardb work on Windows 95/98 one day

No. Ardb is based on fairly recent technologies, like Unicode. Windows 95/98 does not have proper Unicode support. They are no longer supported by Microsoft anyway. You should probably upgrade to a better system... May I suggest Linux? ^_

Q? What is this Happy Families thing in Deck Builder

Happy Families is a formula designed by Legbiter to ensure a good card flow playing your deck. More information on this can be found on Legbiter's web page(old)

Q? What tools do I need to build Ardb

Ardb uses wxWidgets as its cross platform GUI toolkit. It uses libxml and libxslt for processing deck lists. It is written in C++. Any complier that can build these libraries can be used to build Ardb. Ardb is built for Windows using Visual Studio 2008 and GCC on Linux. It should build using GCC on Mac OSX but this is currently a work in progress!!
