Hi Grant,

Thanks for taking time to play around with Wyrm Tools.
 Please feel free to submit any bugs you find while
testing or features you'd like to see in future
releases to the appropriate project trackers.

As you've probably already discovered, the existing
documentation only covers the bare minimum to get
users up and running.  Most of my time is obviously
focused on coding, so the documentation suffers.  Any
suggestions and/or submissions you'd like to make for
the documentation would be welcome for review.

You're "long way to go" comment is spot on.  While
almost everything in Wyrm Tools is extensible, I may
have focused too much on that extensibility being
implemented by developers.  I'm realizing now that
having advanced end users be able to define low-level
entities such as game rules et. al. would help the
"long way" take less time.  Some of my focus during
the current release will be on opening up the data
model to scripting via some new abstractions.  You can
read a little about it at

Cheers,
Rusty
