Well, JADE does stand for "Java-based Ancient Domains Engine", and could
clearly just be called "ADOM 2". With the lack of activity of newsgroups
in
general, I can't imagine JADE discussion warranting a new newsgroup when
we
could just discuss it here. It'll be a long time before a good enough
version of JADE is playable to the same degree as ADOM anyway. If,
eventually, there are so many threads about both that it becomes confusing
then we can set up a new group and discussion will be neatly separated.
