What exactly you are talking about, who is community, who is official stuff and where is DT in all of that?

That additional support will be given to those who, mostly alone and in some “non formally acceptable way”, have insufflated unexpectedly new life to the game taking it far beyond anyone expected.

Again, make you post clear, who are you referring too, if you are talking about modders than say it so.

If you really talk about modders , only them fit “non formally acceptable way”,than DT position is clear and stated long ago. Anybody who he has something to offer, can do that but we are not going to encourage anybody to do things in a “non formally acceptable way”. We might turn the blind eye from time to time but preferred methods are those done in “ formally acceptable way”.
As far as I'm concerned, things that are done and not released as mods have much better chances to be included in future patches than those which are released as mods previously.

Fact is that rare are the ones whose work is good enough to be seriously considered and even rarer are those who are willing to bring up their work to required standard when asked to do so.

Making mods is much easier than making official patch and levels of responsibly are not comparable at all. And that is the main reason why only a few "3rd party" projects will be included in in 4.10.

As far as 4.10 status is concerned, there is only one "big" problem left to be solved. List of features is "locked" and we are doing mostly non-glamorous things like writing translations of all new text added to the game, finalizing new QMB missions and doing minor corrections in 3d models and textures.
