Thanks to Felix Croes, aka Dworkin. DGD is an incredible driver. With a little more documentation, a better MUDLib and some luck we can watch it sweep the world!

Thanks to Rob Leslie for redirecting to this page from his own, and for carrying the DGD torch long before I was anywhere in the picture. He's still out there, doing the LPMOO thing.
