.NET is ok and I appreciate why it was used for OpenSim, but most of
the CMS systems that I have come across and may want to integrate are
not .NET such as Joomla, Drupal. Would this mean installing Mono on
all systems, not just the OpenSim systems? Still a helpful alternative
to consider.

Is a CMS (like Alfresco, Drupal, Joomla...) but runs over .NET. It
shouldn't be too difficult to connect the native Opensim components
to get/set data instead of accessing directly to database.

In other words:
Wiredux won't use those connectors but will grab to the database
itself. Wiredux is not a .NET application so it will go directly to
the database.
I will wait until the refactoring is done, have a look what's
wrecked and maybe fix it.

Putting PHP in front of the DBs is one of the most natural things to
do
from here on -- not just the things that Wiredux does, but for a lot
more! In fact, the entire collection of OpenSim.Services that are
provided as reference implementations can be replaced with
implementations in Apache+PHP.
Calls from the simulators to the services are now all neatly
packaged in
OpenSim.Services.Connectors (these are the "out" connectors). Just
browse through those connectors and check out the wire protocols, then
do the receiving end in PHP. Many of them are using standard web
forms,
others use XMLRPC, others use custom-made HTTP-based dialects.
Calls from outside to the simulators are packaged in
OpenSim.Server.Handlers. Again, check them out and, if not using .NET,
write your own client for them. If using .NET/mono you can import the
DLL OpenSim.Connectors.dll, and reuse the existing connectors as-is.
But that's not all. Since now the interactions between the simulators
and the resource services are all formalized in interfaces
(OpenSim.Services.Interfaces), and the handlers and connectors in the
simulator are loaded dynamically, you can replace the connectors and
handlers themselves. In other words, if you want OpenSim to talk web
services, roll your own Web Services handlers and connectors under
those
interfaces, and you're done -- you'll have to use .NET for this part,
though.
