That sounds interesting.  Will it be possible at any point to use it in
conjunction with the paper-and-pencil version of Yags?  I've always
thought it would be very useful to have a hybrid between a computer RPG
and a campaign manager, which could run by itself (subject to GM
override) until a judgement call was needed and then pause for the GM's
decision.

Will you be able to use code from one of the existing open-source RPG
projects, or are you having to write the entire thing yourself?
