To quote the original project: "LambdaMOO is a network-accessible, multi-user, programmable, interactive system well-suited to the construction of text-based adventure games, conferencing systems, and other collaborative software."

Waverous LambdaMOO is a fork of the LambdaMOO server version 1.8.3.

Waverous LambdaMOO:

• has been converted to compile as C++
• adds Expat for XML parsing (kudos to Ken Fox for his file).
• has conditional compilation via choices when you run ./configure (i.e. --without-fup --with-fileio --with-expat --with-forked-checkpoints)

Future goals include:

• SSL support
• UTF-8
• 64 bit safety
• IPv6 support
• SQLite support (in the form of a MOO object programmers can subclass)

Elizabeth Hess has written a book about using LambdaMOO, Yib's Guide to MOOing. The complete text is available as a PDF from her site: www.yibco.com
