Re: [Metacosm-dev] fresh meat

Hi Nicolas,

As Benoit wrote on the project website, newcomers are welcome. It feels good 
too thinking that we share some ideas and want to make them real.

A more realistic MUD engine is quite a large work... So it makes 
sense to work in a team. 

My skills :

>- java/JSP
(snip!)

Metacosm is all java for now. We discuss about swithching to another language 
for the server from time to time, but it is not really serious. The clients can 
be in any language.

>have you jobs for me ?
Of course. As Benoit already said, there is the LowLevelDescription document on 
the CVS that discuss a data structure for the descriptions in the server and 
for the client protocol. We wrote this because our current objective is to 
improve the textual descriptions received by the telnet client.

Second objective is to implement a basic game (quest ? : a tour of the map, 
looking for object and characters, or a simple fighting system).

Don't hesitate to ask questions about the code structure or the build system. 
We officialy use GCJ 3.2 (but the jdk should still work)


Regards,

Horus
