I have a program to generate 'cybernetik' street plans, maze type things
Originally intended to generate space-hulk type plans, but taken a little
further now.
I wrote it with some dark future rpg in mind.
It is seeded with very little information, and fractally generates
'road' plans. Each person having the program decide to 'run'
maze 'foo' number 2 get the same maze :)

Its Windows
It Might be of interest to some one here

I think it sounds quite useful. Mayhaps you should put it onto Paolo's home
page?
