|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-1. Implement a MUD base in go language, which is ideal for server applications and easer than C to modify.
|
|
|
-2. Implement a MUD base with a license that unlike DIKU and it's descendents, allows it be used for pay-for-play MUDS.
|
|
|
-3. Implement the game of Workers of Eruta, wich is related to the Eruta game and world.
|
|
|
-4. WOE is a game by adults for adults, with some tastefully done adult contents. Less gore and teenage jokes than DIKU, more love.
|
|
|
-5. Make a game that is accessibe to the blind and other people with visual problems.
|
|
|
-6. Have fun while implementing WOE.
|
|
|
-7. Keep the code reasonably clean, but don't care about pedantry such as golint...

|
+We want everyone entering our community willing to help out to feel welcomed.
|
|
|
+To maintain and encourage a welcoming environment we ask of everyone

|
|
|
+goals if you are not a maintainer.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+When the project maintainer(s) consider it necessary, any contribution or
|
|
|
+participation in the project that violates these guidelines may be removed or
|
|
|
+edited. At the discretion of the maintainer(s), someone who maliciously or,
|
|
|

|
|
|
+may be temporarily or permanently banned from contributing to the project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-1. Stay on topic. Refrain from posting SPAM, trolling, irrelevant discussions, ...

|
+the project. The maintainer(s) of this project will not apply any
|
|
|
+in project sanction on the pretext of your unrelated behavior.

|
|
|
