DF Modding / Athas: A Work-In-Progress Mod to Simulate Darksun World

A while back, some guys tried to mod DF into Darksun World. I got the same idea, so I figured I'd reboot this.
If you just want to be notified when this is playable, send me a PM or post here with your preferred method of contact and I'll add you to the list.
The long-range plan is as follows: Athas is a world of desert, hills, dunes, and badlands, with the occasional forest, rare marshland, and exactly one sea, somewhere, but you don't know where. Water is scarce, kindness scarcer. The world will be savage and dangerous, filled with exotic creatures from the Darksun manuals. Metals are rare, and extremely valuable; people rely on leather, bone-mail, and chitin for armor, while using bone and stone weaponry.
Any help with the problems I have highlighted here would be appreciated. Volunteers to help populate the world with Athasian creatures would also be great, and will receive credit in the release post and the readme.
And if, beyond all reason, someone wants to actually download what I have at this stage, just ask. I'm not going to upload a barely-started project otherwise.
