Adam J. Thornton (adam#phoenix,Princeton.EDU) spake thusly:

&gt; 
&gt; So basically the core (in my idea of it) would not do much except handle
&gt; connections, broker them, and multiplex/demultiplex the data going through
&gt; them.  This is going to be kernel-like, so it's not really that important
&gt; to be able to dynamically load it or unload it--I can't imagine a MUD that
&gt; did not provide these services.  And I think this bottom layer would be a
&gt; couple thousand lines of C: quite small.

  Perhaps it should be more microkernel-like, with various networking
protocols abstracted into modules as well? It would be nice to be able 
to plug in, say, Unix-domain socket, console and IPv6 TCP handlers to
support different transports.
