It's an AI framework for variuos games/mods. Currently mainly supporting the
Enemy Territory engine but HL2 support is already in the works.

Hehe, yea.

Don't think that will be an option as we need to be able to ship "inside"
other mods, e.g. for ETF, and it would probalby bloat the whole package
somewhat.

Unfortunately, in our main lib we use C++ and not just plain C. That's why I
think the Woody compiler might be somewhat outdated for our purpose. Maybe I
can find a backport or something, tho.
Think I'll try that.
