Quote from their website:

MUDs, MOOsm MUSHes, M*=20
It's a good way to store those objects. [ColdStore could almost have =
been designed to implement a M* :) ]


I have to say it is a nice idea; we'd still need to dump the database
like we do at the moment for backup and for modifying the Object
classes (it states that you can modify the classes as long as you
don't change the layout or virtual methods, which is exactly what
we'd want to do).

When I've got time I'll have a play with it and see how painful
it might be.
The only problem might be the lack of portability between platforms.
(But if we're keeping the database dumps, then that isn't too much
of a problem.)

Adrian.
