No problem, I can do it tomorrow at 19:00 MET.

Let me know which versions of Freeciv you want to use, which patches
you apply, send me the patches I do not have and the set of commands
to start the server with (read with -r).  The /fix command can be used
to fix the timeout when the game is running.

The only thing I need to work on is a "home page" for each running game,
that explains the game specifics in terms a end user can understand.
The viewgame.phtml script shows some information, but not everything.
