For what it's worth, I have a great deal of experience with Moocode (and
lambdacore).  I did a lot of moo-based RPG programming Back In The Day.  I
don't have a lot of bandwidth for such a project, but then again I guess
it's a 48 hour project, so maybe I could participate in something like that.

Ah, okay, in that case I guess I can't participate :-).
