The alternative would be to treat it as an engine. Quake which is open source 
would approximate the same outcomes that alan produces. But it would of course 
be an approximation...and not alans ventures, derives and detournes in sl.

World of warcraft anyone? ;-)

Hi Rob,

Even though OpenSim is based on Mono, perhaps even this is better than 
supporting such a grand, corporate orientated platform such as Second 
Life, one could even build independent states on there. Although, it 
would be interesting to view their policy around use of personal data 
and privacy.
