I was thinking the same thing. Well, not the planet/fall thing. Only thing that would take me away is my current computer (lack of) crisis, but that's another thread.

Do these zones require "ZoneProxy"? I remember reading about that lonnnng ago, and it scared me away from ever making my own content with OpenZone.

No, the way we use them is simply to replace existing zones. I selected the mmc*, ruj*, mir*, and guk* zones as a large block of them. We also used Nektropos and tutoriala. Basically, any zone you never plan on using "as-is" can be a custom zone.

I like the work Sak was doing, and so far not convinced about SimpleClient (no offense - just never gave it a good whirl).

Sak and I actually worked together to create a zone. He is very talented. I would hope we can drag him into this little project.
The zone we did is a city, called Copper City. It lies on the northern tip of our starting zones, the homeland islands... Basically, Copper City relaces both PoK and bazaar.
This is the only zone I will hold on to (until I have his permission to release it since he is co-designer)

If nothing, I'd love to learn how to "properly" create custom zones like this. In short, yes. Please.

I'm not sure about "properly design", but we have learned a lot with each zone we created.
