directions?  Anyway, before I get walloped...

Having admitted that, I've spent the last two/three years doing various
bits of mudlib work, not going remotely near game stuff.  Apparently,
because of this, I'm a highly desirable coder.  News to me. 

At the moment, I'm quite amused with DGD.  So much so that I think I have
a mudlib that's just below acceptable, assuming the equivalent of
foundation is acceptable.  If anyone wants a copy, drop me a _private_
email.  I've had two happy shoppers (I think).
