TeensyMUD 2.10.0 released

TeensyMUD is a mud server written in Ruby.
This is startup mud system with most of the low-level infrastructure
already in place.

All you have to do is write a game for it.

Get it at http://teensymud.kicks-ass.org where you'll also find a support
forum, support wiki, and subversion repository.

This is a fairly minor release just to get back into the groove.
There have been database changes though.
