I am about to start a mud web site.  The goal of this web site is
to provide yet another list of links and useful information.  The
difference is I wish to provide information and/or links to
unique and/or interesting server development projects.  I am
particularly interested in projects being authored by subscribers
of this list, though it won't be limited to this list.  I realize
that some of you already have web sites promoting your projects
and if so, I am willing to provide yet another link to your site.
I want to provide the information in a consistent, descriptive and 
non-biased format.  I also want most, if not all, of the information 
about the projects to be provided by the server author and this 
information will be put on the site with your permission and
immediately pulled anytime you wish.

In order to get started on this I have created a sort of server
survey which will form the basics of the information I wish to
provide.  I'm certain I have overlooked something obvious, so any
advice is appreciated.  Any additional information is also 
welcome.  If you are interested please Email me.  Don't post it
to the list unless (with JCL's discretion) you wish to use the
format to serve as an introduction or reintroduction.

lowercase:
