I don't think this needs to be a separate list. Tagging the appropriate posts should be enough for those who really want to filter them out.

I don't think a week delay would hurt much. As a temporary (permanent?) measure I'll take code in email and do nightly integrations. Not that much code should be written before a module protocol. > I'm open to persuasion on any of the above.

Translation: the meta-floor for DevMUD is briefly open. I'd appreciate using Kanga.Nu as a host for the mailing list, and a code mirror. Unless CVS trees distribute nicely, I have a small preference for the primary repository being frost.slimy.com. > Rules: > > 1) Please post under this subject heading ONLY. > > 2) This thread is to be short lived (no more than a few days). > > 3) Discussion of design issues on this thread will not be > appreciated. > > Commentary: > > Find yourselves a benign dictator.

There's plenty of room for things like a VM lead if people want to do this sort of thing without running the whole project.
