&gt;   What is *YOUR* purpose and interest in this list?  What would you
&gt; really like to get out of the list?  What would you like to do with
&gt; the list?  Some I know are here purely for the technical aspects of
&gt; server development (an area that has received little coverage on the
&gt; list of late): how to write performant networking code, how to tune
&gt; and design their data model, what the concerns and techniques are in
&gt; writing a MUD programming language ala LP/MOO/MUF/ColdC/etc.  Others
&gt; I know are interested in hack'n'slash game design, RP, real virtual
&gt; world creation, etc. etc, etc, etc.

I appreciate the discussions on virtual world and server design.  Its
been
great to hear people working towards the same sorts of goals and
features
as I have, and to hear how they're doing.  I also find the philosophical

discussions on the purposes of virtual worlds really interesting.
