Anybody else interested, or have suggestions? I'm crazy enuf, too. That sounds like a really exciting approach to group communications and work environments, which has applications for reducing business travel (among other things). It was a MUD that got me interested in VR in the first place (altho it was text). I have some experience with adventures, MUD's, and adventure languages. But, I don't have enuf. I.e., I don't feel like I know the perfect language to use, or the right combiniation of flexibility/power versus simplicity/usability for the user programming language within the MUD. But, there are other people (somewhere) who may be interested in a project like this and have much more MUD programming experience, on both the system and user sides. Such a large part of this project would overlap the issues of a normal MUD, that we'd need people with lots of experience with MUD's. The VR stuff would be fairly unknown to everyone, so that's okay, but I wouldn't want to stumble around making MUD mistakes that someone else could easily avoid. So, are there MUD experts on this list? -- J. David Beutel 11011011 jdb9608@cs.rit.edu "I am, therefore I am."
