Let's stick a dungeonmaker1 tree in there, then. If you'll pack up the=20
tree you want to use as dm1 I'll get that into it's own tree. That also=20
allows us to easily make fixes to that code without doing any special=20
magic with CVS (branching, forking, merging, etc...).

Good point. I'm using DM2 to mean the generic rewrite. Let me know=20
which terminology you want for which work and I'll stick with those=20
terms.

Why limit it? Using STL classes you can ignore any arbitrary limits.

My mind is crammed with the reorg stuff right now. If I think about=20
this stuff right now it'll explode. ;)
