Why is it that, when there are already several snippet sites out there,
people feel that rather than contribute to one and make it better, that
they do a 'service' to the community by making yet another location
to look for things, and in the process, cause general confusion about
where something might be found?

(This is NOT directed at the individual who's email I followed up to, it's
a general opinion that unless you've something NEW to provide to the
community, that it's a disservice to dilute things with yet another web
site.)

ObCircle:
I'm interested in hearing suggestions for pl6 of DG Scripts. What's already
been put into them as new features:
    mdoor and odoor commands (like wdoor)
    mtransform -<vnum> now lets the new mob get its own hp/max hp/exp
        rather than retaining those of the transofrming mob
    Xsend/Xecho/Xechoaround commands can be replaced with %send%, etc.,
        making the commands non-attach-type specific
    scripts can not attach/detach scripts to mobs/objs/rooms by id
    there are now zone commands to attach scripts and set globals
