Well, since I'm not sure what you mean with "Zope OFS" I don't know. Maybe
you mean the Zope Management Interface?

Yeah, I guess. But I'm not even sure how the MOO came into the discussion
again. Wasn't it collaborative development we were talking about? I'm pretty
sure a MOO would be a lousy environment for that. Some of the technologies
are clearly helpful, but the restraints of the MUD environment would quickly
get into the way.
