What is Pioneers?

Pioneers is a GNOME game based upon the board game Settlers of Catan created by Mayfair Games. Pioneers was originally authored by Dave Cole in the spring and summer of 1999, under the name Gnocatan. Dave wanted to be able to play the game without having to travel, so he developed a computer implementation of the game. The Pioneers project stalled in the late summer of 1999 and saw little development until the early spring of 2000 when the project was taken over by Andy Heroff and moved to SourceForge. Andy recruited several developers (including Dave) and they improved upon the original game as well as fixed bugs that have been found in older versions.
