Ahoy all

While thinking a bit about rulesets this morning I got an idea for
better support for ruleset information in TP protocol.

Usecase: A user opens the client and opens the list of servers that user
can connect to. User sees different servers with different rulesets.
Which one is the right one? User would like to see various information
about rulesets: name, difficulty level, short description, story behind
it, all rules with object descriptions and data...

Suggestion: The protocol should enable sending the above information and
the ruleset modules should be required to provide this information to
server. Maybe the longer parts (story, rules, objects data) could be
provided in the form of an URL pointing to location with the
information. Clients could then open these URLs in external browser or
using an integrated internal browser.

What do you think about this? Is TP04 the right version to get this in?
Should it wait for TP05?
