&gt; [snipped stuff about features]

&gt;&gt; Right now I'm working on the implementation of the servlet protocol
&gt;&gt; adaptor based on HttpServlet (to create the way to communicate to
&gt;&gt; the ActiveX controls, which other guys write).
...
&gt;&gt; So, if you think this is the right thing for the list, please let
&gt;&gt; me know *what* exactly you'd like to see first.

&gt;   Well, perhaps you could tell us how this stuff would fit into a
&gt; Mud?  It sounds more business-orientated to me; I mean your average
&gt; LP or Moo doesn't really have 'business logic'.

Actually, MUDs do have business logic, its just a different type of
business.  They have defined dependencies and interactions between
database items, volatile data types which cause reflective updates in
other data systesm, policies which need to be enforced on the data and
external inputs, reactive systems which respond to state changes or
inputs, etc etc etc.

Truth to tell, there is extrmely little difference from a data-centric
perspective between a MUD and a standard business application.

&lt;&lt;Damn I'm glad to be out of that business app game&gt;&gt;
