Magnificant MUDdy Musings
The Evennia MUD Server has been progressing through beta at a good clip, with much effort spent on fine-tuning existing features, and expanding on the already excellent pile of documentation.

For those who would like to harass the man (or the other users/developers) in person, stop by #evennia on FreeNode.
