Hi,
why not use Croquet/Cobalt for itself to build a community ? To use
them as the medium ? Is that not a goal of these efforts in last
consequence ? Or is Croquet/Cobalt to far away from use ?
I can not wait until this moment where I can meet others in Croquet
and trial out all these things Croquet is built for.....
Regards
Hans
