I am interested in organizing and taking part in a project that would create a virtual world much like the one described in Neal Stephenson's 'Snow Crash'. I'm not necessarily talking about something 3d and I'm not talking about a game either. Like a MOO, only virtual. And each 'user' is allocated space with which they are free to edit in any way, within the confines of that space. I know Second Life and others come to mind when you think of this, but Frankly Second Life came off as sloppy to me. I want people to be able to code their own objects and environments with the ease of Python.
I don't know forget the suggestions, anything is on the table, but there are just so many half-hearted and weak commercial attempts at this I feel that it's time to get Python involved in the game and do it right. If anyone has any interest, ideas, comments or otherwise, e-mail me. If some interest is shown we'll start a board, a site, an IRC channel or whatever we have to do to meet and get the ball rolling. :) Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
