civ2civ3: helptext of Tech Communism is wrong
I forgot to include sandbox... incoming new patch
Are all branches affected?
Yes, all branches are affected. The patch works for 3.1 and 3.0 too. I just tested it. Altough the patch adds a text line that I'm not sure if it might be improved:
* Cancels the bonus from Mysticism and Theology (to Temples and Cathedrals).

Seems unambiguous to me.
One thing related, that I never understood properly or tested: In a non-communist government, does Michael Angelo's, Theology and a cathedral give 7 or 8 content? Clearly (now) under communism it is 6.

In civ2civ3 it's 7: 3 from cathedral + 1 from Theology + 3 from Michael Angelo's
in classic it's 6 most of the time, 8 with Theology, and 6 again after discovery of Communism.

Sweet. And now I know why I was confused between 7 & 8. I was testing/experimenting in both classic and civ2civ3 and not taking notes (relying on my terrible memory).
But I think some help-text somewhere (not sure where), should clarify this so that our users can work this out for themselves.

That leaves only S2_6.
I forgot about S2_6. The patch won't apply there, I'll do one asap.

I thought it'd be simpler to explain/understand if Michael Angelo's does not duplicate theology effect. I understand it might be confusing when coming from classic. But current helptext tries to clarify it:
Doubles the base effect of Cathedrals. This makes 3 additional unhappy citizens content in each city with a Cathedral; however, it does not affect citizens made unhappy by aggression.

I'll be pushing string changes to S2_6 with relatively high priority now, so that translators have more time to do their thing before 2.6.5 release.
Uploaded patch for S2_6. The patch for Master works for S3_0 and S3_1 too.
I'm still learning to handle different branches with git, but it seems better than it was with svn. The first patch is the hardest one to get right, for next ones I'll repeat the same procedure.
cazfi, where can I find the current state of each branch: format freeze, string freeze, only bug fixes, etc?

Only by following announcements to freeciv-dev mailing list, I guess.
civ2civ3: helptext of Tech Communism was wrong. In this ruleset, the effect of Cathedrals is reduced by the Communism government, not by the tech.
Fixed typo error in helptext of Anarchy government. Added missing "*", and joined the 2 lines related to luxury.
