Evennia

Hey guys check out this python geared lib
http://code.google.com/p/evennia/

Seems pretty well documented and high level.  What do people think?

It also uses twisted words to conveniently talk with IRC and intermud channels.

This bit particularly appeal to me since I am more towards social mud development.

Functional beta release has come out.

I looked at it and it looked interesting because I have a tiny bit of Python experience that I could build on, but I felt it had too many dependencies. Any of them could cease development at any time, and some of them haven't been updated for some time.

My first impression is that builders will need to have a lot more technical knowledge, but it did set up very easily for me (on linux mint which is ubuntu-based, so I just did apt-get to get all dependencies quickly).
