        The mudpy project aims to create a simple, generic, cross-platform,
        freely-redistributable MUD core engine which can be easily understood
        and extended. It is written in pure Python 3 and has only pure Python
        dependencies. All configuration and data are stored in
        consistently-formatted plain text (YAML 1.1) files for ease of
        administration. The core engine is unicode-clean internally and supports
        UTF-8 encoding for input and output of extended text characters.
        
        The mudpy program and sample content are released under a free and open
        license, and any bug reports, criticisms, ideas, patches, content
        submissions or other offers of collaboration are wholeheartedly welcome.
        
        what's missing
        --------------
        
        This project is still very much a work in progress, and is unlikely to
        be suitable for anyone who isn't willing to put in a bunch of work (help
        implementing features upstream is welcome, of course!). Here's a
        non-comprehensive list of missing things most folks are likely to expect
        in a MUD:
        
        * interactive objects/props
        * inventory/equipment management
        * non-player characters
        * a default combat system
        * sample races/classes and spells/skills
        * example implementation of character stats/progression
        * closeable/lockable portals
        * ability to change randomly-generated avatar names
        * pagination of the output stream
        
        what's included
        ---------------
        
        The fundamentals of a multi-user service are in place, and foundations
        are laid on which the missing features above can be built. Here are some
        highlights of what's been implemented so far:
        
        * the beginnings of a MUD framework
        
            - account creation, authentication and lobby menus
            - movement between rooms/locations with inferred portals
            - in-room communication between users
            - setting and viewing user preferences
            - an integrated command help system
            - world creation and introspection commands for admins
            - live reloading of configuration and source code
        
        * a full-featured Telnet service with a focus on IETF RFC compliance
        
            - RFC 854 Telnet protocol
            - RFC 856 binary mode
            - RFC 857 echo control
            - RFC 858 go-ahead suppression
            - RFC 885 end-of-record transmission
            - RFC 1091 terminal type
            - RFC 1073 window size negotiation
            - RFC 1184 line-at-a-time input mode
            - RFC 1143 "Q method" negotiation state engine
        
        * mature development practices
        
            - traditional Python distutils/setuptools/pip packaging
            - comprehensive regression and style testing
            - minimal runtime dependencies
            - extensive logging
            - flexible, generalized data model
            - in-repository documentation
