Plug'n'play? :-)
However, yes. Simply put, the ideas of a "best" codebase, or of even of "best" features, or even of a good, cooperative venture that's generally preferred... are wrong. There is no such thing.
However, imho, the thread has ventured into unknown territory far, far away from the source.
Sounds like... open source. Aka, em, Sourceforge?
However, I should note that I have yet to see a good mud codebase come out of such a development process. Look at, say, AIME. Some of the worst code EVER (though, admittedly, functionality is not bad, and it's very appealing to my builder-side).
It's possible, sure. A quality-controlled open source codebase for which you would need to generate some very hefty interest from the better coders out there... Sure, possible. Difficult, though, and in the end it would just be another codebase, though potentially one with some nifty algorithms.
