Eesh! Writing a book is a *lot* of work! I know: it took me nine months to write Essentials of Metaheuristics, a book which has few examples and no assignments and is only 230 pages. (btw if you've not seen it, get it at http://cs.gmu.edu/~sean/book/metaheuristics/ ) I dunno. I mean MASON needs a *manual*, which might be nice to put out. But that alone would be a large task. Then Jack Sexton wrote: > From following this list, I can see where MASON is going - in fact, I have had discussions with faculty about using a game engine for multiagent simulations. Do tell! :-) No, it's not games. Though PacMan was fun to write. Sean
