The fact its been trialed with FSF and could be Guix Days compatible is a big plus. TBH, having mastered lua/jit I would feel a bit dirty packaging NPN to satisfy something that Lua would be better suited for. What are the (technical/usability) advantages of choosing LibreAdventure? I will reflect on this, though Im (personally) more interested in building worlds from GemText than JSON. # One more suggestion Has anybody ever considered or used psyc - Protocol for Synchronous Conferencing? (its how I discovered Powwow) https://psyc.eu/ ``` description Imagine smartly multicasted chat and conferencing, non-proprietary instant messaging, distributed social networking and data sharing. And now imagine all of this rolled into one. PSYC is an open source protocol and technology, bringing the useful and amazing aspects of several technologies, some of which have been proprietary too long, together. ```` It has a curious mixture of bit ambition and long history but I cant (yet) tell how modern and functional it is. Pscyc utilities seem interesting https://perl.psyc.eu/ ``` git2psyc - report changes to a git repository into a developer chatroom psycauth - authenticate something with your PSYC identity psyccat - dump a file to a PSYC recipient psyccmd - remote control psycamp and whatever wants to be controlled psycfilemonitor*- notify changes to the file system in realtime psycion - amazing console psyc client! psyclisten - receive messages and notify the user about them psycmail - report incoming emails to the recipient psycamp* - media player with PSYC notification and remote control psycmsg - send a message to a PSYC recipient psycnotify - send presence notification from the command line psycsyncd - interfaces PSYC SYNC protocol to DBI (SQL databases etc) syslog2psyc - daemon that receives events from syslog and forwards to PSYC remotor - control console for Tor routers that can notify into PSYC ``` For my purposes, the PSYC Syntax Specification could potentially serve orthogonal aspects for complementing the design principles of the Gemini protocol https://about.psyc.eu/Spec:Syntax https://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/specification.html Jonathan
