CoolMUD
Hey! I have decided to move the page to the correct name per your request. May I ask that you are careful in where you put your links to this page, since as a new article this could be viewed by some as spamming. Also, since I have not heard of CoolMUD before (and my interest is in MOOs), where you have sourced this information on this page from? Thanks! Ian13ID:540053 20:34, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Ian, I was a member of the LambdaMOO community in the early days, and used CoolMUD when it was first released. I assumed its existence was common knowledge, but the external link on the page should provide more source information, including ChangeLogs, etc. from the original CoolMUD source.  Note that CoolMUD's author is Stephen White, who is also the first author of MOO, before Pavel Curtis maintained it.  I also contributed to ColdMUD (another successor to MOO written by Greg Hudson), and intend on writing a page on that at some point. Ryandaum 21:28, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh great. I can say I have heard vaugely of ColdMUD, but not of the Cool one. A wonderful insight. I currently seem to have taken on the task of maintaining the MOO page, so this information may lead to rather a lot of phrasing changes. Thanks! Ian13ID:540053 21:42, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


 * MOO of course is the only system of this type to really have prospered, despite its technical difficulties, it had the larger community. CoolMUD, ColdMUD, etc. were all attempts to solve some of the technical problems with MOO (diskbasing, distribution, various language features, refinements in the object model, etc.) but really didn't ever grab a user community enough to make their relative innovations successful.  Also, many of the people involved in this kind of work went on to do other things or into 'serious' programming language research, instead.Ryandaum 21:50, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi
Hi Ryan, I noticed someone has been asking some questions about A Rape in Cyberspace in the discussion area. Could you be of assistance?

--I'm not really an expert on this subject, and wouldn't want to comment. You'll find others with more to say.Ryandaum 00:51, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Long time no see!
I was documenting the history of how I came to be interested in everything I'm intererested in, and was including links to MOO and ColdMUD. I was surprised to see a ColdMUD page on WikiPedia, so I checked the history to see who was responsible, and there you were. I have a MOO at pm.thatsnice.org 7777. Drop by some time if you'd like to catch up or whatever. Hope you're doing well. Crag 01:02, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Invitation to Join WP:WINE
Howdy Ryandaum! I've noticed your work on several grape articles, including Pinot Noir, and wanted to invite you to join the Wikipedia Wine Project. One of the tasks we are trying to do is to get Pinot Noir to FA status. We'd love to have you as part of the Team. :) Agne 09:55, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Important Wine Project discussion needs input!
Hello, the Wine Project is currently in the process of hammering out a proposed policy relating to Notability (wine topics). As Wikipedia and its wine coverage continues to grow, the need for a clear, concise guideline on how Wikipedia's notability policies such as WP:CORP, WP:SIGCOV and WP:NOTE relate to wine articles has emerged. Please review the proposed policy and take part in the talk page discussion Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(wine_topics). All input and view points are welcomed.

Direct producer hybrids
Hi Ryandaum ! I saw you contributed to Hybrid grapes and to Corot noir (and perhaps to Valvin muscat and Noiret ?) ( among others) :would you say that Corot noir,Valvinmuscat and Noiret are direct producer hybrids (which don't need any grafting )? It is not so clear to me ( I am trying to add somme information to the french "Hybride producteur direct" )since some hybrids have to be grafted : what about these ones ? Thanks for your help .Trente7cinq (talk) 12:07, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
