Peter, your patch sounds truly interesting. Some questions:
- If I had router that supports using external ip from lan, then I should be ok anyway? (I know many people don't have such a router) - If you have your realxtend region connected to osgrid, can you use 3D meshes, and how is osgrid rendered, and avatars?
