Holiday Message

I'd just like to extend my thanks to the numerous people that use this addon. What started as a small project to help myself turned quickly into something quite a bit larger.

Currently according to the project Ohloh.net page we have 4-5 active developers working on the project and 37 total people who have contributed to the project. The project now has over 22,000 lines of code and would have cost around $300k US to develop.

Some of you may have noticed that in my donation section, I mention pets and animal shelters as the first method of donation. To date I don't think that anyone has gone out and done this instead of donating to the mod. I'd encourage you to consider spending some time helping the our furry companions. One method to do this is to fostering an animal over the holidays. I know when I got my first cat after moving out from my parents, it filled my life up quite a bit. Pet Finder has a program going on where you can find a local shelter to help foster an animal over the holidays. Please check out Foster a Lonely Pet and consider sharing this holiday with a pet.

Have a great holiday season, Merry Christmas to everyone and I hope the new year treats everyone well.

Donations

Ackis has setup a donation site via Pledgie. Feel free to donate if you like this AddOn - we have put countless hours of time and effort into it along with many people who have helped us. We did not write this AddOn with the intent to make any money from it. It was written help us (and others) with some needs that we saw in-game, and with our goal to make it filled with information it's become a massive project.

If you don't wish to donate money feel free to consider one of the following methods which may be more suitable:

• Volunteer time at your local animal shelter such as the Society for Prevention of Cruelty for Animals (SPCA) or a local humane shelter or drop a few bucks off for them. If you do this, please let Ackis know.
• Send Ackis some UDE Points. These points are obtained from the World of Warcraft TCG and Mini game.
• Send some gold to one of the authors in-game or help out with some achievements, or even send a message saying thanks. :)

Feature Requests/Bug Reporting

Read the Bug Reporting and Feature Requesting information before submitted a bug report or feature request. Posting reports in the comments is not the place to do so. Ackis had to turn off the comments at Curse.com because of constant bug reports and feature requests. Comments are for questions on how to use the mod, or you can see the thread on WoW Ace. Please follow these small little instructions to make our lives easier. The easier you make development for Ackis Recipe List, the more time we will have to develop other addons.

Bug Reports

Please use the WoW Ace tracker to file bug reports. Posting bugs in the comments is not the place to do it.

Feature Request

Please use the WoW Ace tracker to add suggestions and feature requests. Not all suggestions will be accepted: there are many people who use this addon, each with separate views. We will, however, try to make it as user friendly as possible...but when a decision is made please accept it.

Integration

Ackis Recipe List strives to integrate with existing trade skill mods out there. If you have a request for integration, please submit a feature request at WoW Ace. We make no promises to implement the feature at all. There is a limited API documented to interface with the ARL database. If you are a developer and would like more functions, please contact us on IRC. Currently, the mod works with:

• Advanced Trade Skill Window - Screenshot 1
• Skillet
• Manufac - No longer maintained.
• Cauldron
• Mr Trader
