Re: Developing from scratch
My biggest argument AGAINST using an existing codebase --- specifically DIKU based -- is the damndable license. I have read more flamewars, taunts, hate posts, moronic wanna-be-lawyering and just plain old community disdain attached to just about any thread that deals with someone violating the license (or the spirit of the license) in some fashion. It makes one want to go out and write a server from scratch! ;-)
