hello everybody!

I recently updated my DAMN instance (https://tarefas.mapeia.space) so I
had a surprise with the new client, I really liked the old one, it was
easy and intuitive to use, although the UI was a bit simplistic, but it
worked well...
I wonder what the future of DAMN will be, will it have a client that is
not text-only?
I have to make an exception, I liked the panel mode, I know it was not
made to use with id but it looks very good heheh

I'm sorry for surprises, that was not an intention. Also, I'm trying to
keep the UI still simple.

The reason to make unlock actions _hidden in text_ is to avoid rushed
clicking for newbie mappers. Experienced mappers are still encouraged to
use "open panel" in the area or https://mappy.damn-project.org/.

Not-text-only client is https://mappy.damn-project.org/.

The panel is still available! It is only included in the
https://client.damn-project.org/ - you need to click the area and then
"open panel" link.

Have a nice day,

Just for completeness -- it was not fair to remove panel subdomain even
if the panel was merged to the client.

Panel subdomain was revived, see https://panel.damn-project.org/
