Server play with tiles (in a browser, no less)


Although the central place for design discussion is ##crawl-dev on freenode, some may find it helpful to discuss requests and suggestions here first.

Server play with tiles (in a browser, no less)

Hello All,

Has there been any work on the ability to play on the server, but with tiles?
I'm thinking of something in general like "ssh://crawl.akrasiac.org", with a client and a server, but having a web browser be the client and the server be the server. :)
There are lots of browser based technologies that could be used (Flash, Silverlight, HTML5, JavaScript).

I'd like to contribute my software development skills and see if this is possible, but I didn't want to duplicate any effort already underway.

Also, if this isn't the correct place to discuss it, let me know

Thanks!

Uh, yeah, Interface and Software is the right section for this. In fact, this very thing is being discussed.

Glad to meet you, though.
