[MUD-Dev] META: Topic List - 1999



This years topic list is an HTML file (awww....) and should be attached to 
this post ...

Open it up, point, click, drool, and teleport yourself back in time to
the key threads of 1999.

Mayhap next week I'll forego my afternoon naps at the office and create 
something that will teleport one back to any time period in Mud-Dev history. 

Cheers!  :->
