DZork
Category Java
Basically this is an zork engine stuffed into a domino database that allows you to play any of the old zmachine compatible games by email (or blackberry), it will keep your games state stored as a profile, so you can play it as slow or fast as your want, its half academic Java exercise and half a desire let people do something interesting on their blackberry's during the boring meeting /travels (and half to annoy admins)
Still a lot of gluing together at the moment, and trying to reuse an existing z-machine, but finding a good one on Java 1.4 is proving to be a small pain, but good progress is been made and will start uploading files if it proves to be viable. if people like it i will bung it up on openntf
