mudstandards.org

There's a new wiki and forums created so that client developers and other interested parties can get together to document and discuss MUD protocols.

Since this is an area I have spent a bit of time researching lately, it is timely and I think it is much needed. I'm looking forward to having up-to-date documentation about the different protocols available, and not having to scour a disparate selection of different pages on the subject over the internet.

Initially the forums were invite only, and you had to apply to have access. Thankfully that was reconsidered and now they are read only and you have to apply for write access.
