Hi to everybody :

Well, a week ago I posted a message to java-interest mailing list
asking if there was anybody interested in programming a MUD in java.

Quite a lot of people is interested on this. We have already started 
discusing a bit about it. We all agreed in one thing, it'll have 
to be something new in the MUD/MOO world ... radically different.

As I said, we have started talking about it, but nothing has really
started (hopelly next week we will). But now we have a mailing list
which is going to be the center of our discussions. Yes, I know
that there is already one java-mud list, but that one is a general
discussion list. We wouldn't like to waste bandwith of people who
is not really interested in implementation detail or in our project.

Well, if you are interested in joining us, feel free to do it !!!

Just send a mail to :

	majordomo@tele.ucl.ac.be

and in the body of the message :

	subscribe insane-asylum your_email_address
	
And YES, insane-asylum is the name I've given to the mailing list
(but it was Thomas H. Mancino's idea :-). Why ??? Well, we really
didn't want to use any of the typycal words like java or mud or moo.
And secondly, cause I thing all this is a bit crazy, mental illnes,
starting a project only by means of the Internet and using a new
language that almost anybody knows (including me and most of the
people already interested).

This was another reason to start with the project ... this way I'm
sure I'm gonna learn it to an acceptable level ... and if you combine
it with a bit of fun (Muds) we've got the PERFECT COCKTAIL !!!

If you've got any questions before subscribing just e-mail me, ok ?

c ya !!! (in the mailing list hopefully)

           Security is when everything is settled.  
           When nothing can happen to you.  
           Security is the denial of life.
