:). You already knew that. I have to confess, the only reason I want a poll is
that I'm certain of the result. I doubt anyone shares Raimar/Mike's taste in
graphics. New users like eyecandy. I've just learned that apparently most of
the Freeciv users don't EVER download a new tileset. I'm disillusioned. 

I thought our users were smart, and capable of solving their own problems. I
don't refer to the users on windows/MacOS/Amiga of course. Only our unix users.
But even these guys have let me down.

This leads to a rethink on the sound issue. Per, you should consider putting it
in the stable release. Possibly even CVS.
