Multi-User Dimensions (MUDs) [3], and their Object-Oriented versions (MOOs) [6], are geographically distributed, programmable client-server systems that support the cooperation of multiple users according to the virtual environment metaphor. In this metaphor, users are allowed to concurrently navigate in a set of "virtual" rooms. Rooms are interconnected through doors and may contain objects. Users are allowed to explore the contents of rooms, create and manipulate objects, and contact other users visiting the same room.
