ANN: DOOP (Distributed Pythontic MOO) 0.1.1

[John Wiegley]

DOOP is a distributed, object-oriented MOO server written in Python.
It began with the POO source of last year, but has diverged greatly
from it.  This version is GPL, with the kind permission of the
original POO author, Joseph Strout.

The server is in pre-alpha stage at the moment, though most of the
functionality is working just fine.  I still have to hammer out some
of the scripts, and test the remoting/multi-threaded code under heavy
load.

You can try out a one-user version of the server at:

    http://doop.sourceforge.net

Just run the script "bootstrap", followed by "run".  Note that you
will need Pyro 1.4 to use DOOP, with the modifications below.

Suggestions are welcome!
