<p>Not sure if you figured this out yet but just took a quick look. It's showing up for me in the dashboard but getting a fatal error on line 45 just after installing it. </p>

<p>Looks like you have <code>MudDate::log</code>, probably should be <code>MudDatePlugin::log</code> (need the full plugin name in this instance I think, because Craft hasn't fully initialized your plugin yet?).</p>
