MUME is a diku derivative and mudlle was written for MUME. See
http://mume.pvv.org/history.html In this case mudlle is different
from Bartle's work. I know they didn't license it.
And since I joined MUME in late 92 (not 91 like I thought, since it
didn't really exist :) I've been there almost from the beginning.
Scary.
