I have been working on this project for a while, and I knew this from the start, but my abilities are fairly limited in terms of developing a PW, as you all have probably noticed from the abundance of information seeking posts I have made recently. So I am looking for some people with experience in server admistration, scripting, building, (and eventually I will be recruiting DM's and players, but at this point I need to get the foundation in place first) who might be interested in joining a development team either fully or as a consultant.
I have had alot of help on the boards recently from many members of the community, and I could continue to try to fumble through on my own using the boards as I can to help fill in the gaps (and probably would still do that even with a team), but it would help tememdously if I had a team to work with.
I am open to it being (and in fact hope that it would be) a community project (meaning more of a democracy than a dictatorship), provided it stays within certain parameters and doesn't stray too far from my overall vision of the mod. For example, it is a medium item magic world, and I would not be open to changing it to a low magic (would take too much work to go back and balance everything for that) or extremely high magic (same reason), however if the dev team, and the player base want to do something that fits within the existing system, I would wholeheartedly enourage the contribution, as I feel a dynamic and evolving world is always more exciting than a stagnat one, and this particular PW has development contributions from it's community as part of it's legacy.
To give you an idea about the mod, it has been around since the end of 2002. Was uploaded to the vault about a year and a half ago when the first server host shut down. It was then picked up by another host, and had about a years worth more of development done to it (of which I was a part of). Recently that host also shut down. A third host has now steped in, but I believe he is wanting to take it in an entirely different direction than I, and if that is the case (which it appears to be), I have decided to branch off on a different path, not as a competitor, but just as an alternative.
Here is the link to the old PW announcement I made for it to give interested parties more of an idea of where the mod is today, and I would be happy to discuss in what direction I would like to see it go from here.

So if anyone is interested in helping in whatever capacity they are able to, and desire to, I would love to hear from you.
Thank you all, Lazarus Magni
