I know he accidently sent this to the list, but let's discuss it anyway.

All too true.

Actually, I think I moved saving throws to class.c from magic.c.

If they were all HTML, that wouldn't happen. (hint)

It's part of a (very nice) 7 piece paper on common MUD modifications. I
wish more people knew about it. What I really need to do it write news
articles for all of the files in the contrib/doc/ directory on
ftp.circlemud.org, or have someone mail them to
submit@developer.circlemud.org if they have time.

http://developer.circlemud.org/OasisOLC/ I think he has.
Incidentally, I can make a projects directory (where OasisOLC would move)
so that people can have news about their project listed. In fact, I can
probably even give people limited access to the admin back-end (was
designed for multi-user anyway) to post their own stories without needing
me to do it. They'd be of the form:
http://developer.circlemud.org/projects/OasisOLC/
Naturally you'd have to have something applicable to CircleMUD in general
and not just your MUD. So Death's Gate Scripts would count but a MUD
listing would not and ASCII player files would count, etc.

Anyone wanting web space for documentation is free to send it to me to
include so we don't have the CircleMUD-documentation-site-of-the-week all
the time. In fact, we have a lot of documentation (a la FTP site even) but
it's not centralized. That's what developer.circlemud.org is trying to do.
Things that are multiple pages (like the FAQ and WTFAQ) are possible but I
currently have to do those.
And if I pull it off, we'll have one nifty community driven site.
