In November 1998, the Altima project was announced on slashdot with the
intention of being the GPL equivalent of Ultima Online. About a year later
under a new name and with the new goal of creating the first MMORPG engine as
Free Software, the WorldForge project became more recognisable as it is today.

Seven years down the line the hard working members of the project have
persevered through trolls, skeptics, changes of leadership, slashdotting and
worse to create over one million lines of code and nearly four gigabytes of
media. There have been over twenty thousand software package downloads from the

Skstream is an iostream based C++ socket library. It is ideally suited for use as the underlying transport for Atlas-C++, and has been well tested and debugged. It was first discovered for WorldForge when it was used in UClient and has since been packaged up as its own library for use on other WorldForge projects.
