I'm just wondering if anyone has done anything with Darkstar yet?
If so, what do think about the project?

Thanks for the tip Julia - I hadn't heard about this!

I looked through some of the information they had on the project the other day when I heard about it. It seems like an interesting idea to me, though I'm not myself quite sure that there's going to be more than enthusiasts writing code using it for a while. I'd like to be proven wrong, though.

(Added) Just saw the catalog for the hands-on labs at JavaOne, and they're having one on DarkStar involving a MUD. (Something near and dear to my heart, since that's how I got buried in programming APIs.) Maybe that'll kick start something...
