(Yeah, guess I better put in something to check for blank message
bodies.)
Still waiting to get things moved over to the hosting service. Two
holdups there, one me, one Carl-the-sysadmin. I haven't gotten TWiki
properly upgraded, and he's been so busy fighting fires at work he
hasn't really felt like coming home and doing more sysadmin stuff. And
nobody wants *me* doing sysadmin work; Unix permissions and I do *not*
get along. (Seriously. I have found more weird, creative, *obscure*
ways to screw up permissions than you'd ever think would exist.)
So in the meantime, rather than work on (and break) Gamehawk proper, I
took some time out to work on a Javascript toy. It's the beginnings of
a virtual tabletop, built on JQuery and the Wirebird framework (I
didn't actually know Wirebird was a framework until I wrote this).

I said "beginnings," though that'll be obvious if you play with it a
little. As of this writing, you can drag things out of the library, and
sometimes they'll make it onto the map (sometimes you have to refresh
. Javascript is interesting because the client side is visible to
anybody without having to put the source in a TWiki^W um, version
control system. So you can go look at the JS (embedded in the page for
your convenience) and see my experimentation. I've marked the fixme
points with my usual "!!" for stuff that needs attention, "!!!" for
stuff that's outright broken. Patches welcome...
