Victor Laxman has posted a new message at drcsite.org, Cyan Worlds' in-character website, confirming that something is about to happen.

A couple of my security sensors were tripped about an hour ago (around 3:20 Cavern Time).

I know it has been a while since we've talked, but none of you had mentioned any upcoming plans to visit the Cavern. Did I miss a memo?

If it wasn't any of us, we definitely ought to look into it. Unfortunately, I cannot get away from my surface duties in the near future.

Anyone have time to go?


I know it is probably nothing, but still... well, you know.

I hereby modify my previous reaction, written while ill, of little more than "Bah humbug" to "Ooh..."

[Firesign]

before this post, the last drc posting was in april of 2007 from laxman about the great zero markers. why would they bother to do this now if something wasn't happening?

WTF!? Just 1-2 minutes after the appearance of the reply, you already posted that. Nice job!

I'm available this weekend, too.

Meet you down there sometime tomorrow, Dr. K. It will be nice to see you again.

Sorry you can't make it, Vic. We'll have to get together soon. It's been too long.

Thanks to those on MystOnline.info chatroom for pointing this out.

*cautiously optimistic*

[D'nial]

Well, look at that! This forum is lit up like something lit up more than this forum is usually lit up.

[JaneW]

WOW!!!!!

*trips over self on way to fling caution out the window*

Can't help it--I'm excited.

[zib_redlektab]

OH MAN.

Does this mean we might even have MORE tomorrow?

[halvor]

I don't want to crush anyone's hope, but this could still all just be their IC way of setting the stage for the open-source uru.

No.

However, this coupled with the email from Tony Fryman to whoever it was that posted about it on the MOUL forums means that we might eventually get something after all.

Any thoughts on whether Cyan will ever run their own official server for Uru Live? Personally, if it's between open-sourcing and an official server, I'd rather have it open-sourced, but both would be awesome.

I'm kind of hoping for a hybrid, but I don't know if it would be possible/allowed. I'd rather just one official server, but with an easy way to submit and publish user-created content through the open source materials. Do I think that will happen, no. Do I hope that will happen through a reinvigorating of the Guilds, yes, but again, modified a bit from what we had. But we'll see.

Activity in the cavern? I wonder what/who that could be?!

[LAHI]

I hope we get some form of URU Live now, and that the Open Source follows closely behind!

[Mystler]

If Cyan found a new Publisher for URU Live, we can forget Open Source I think.
