Hello Sal, We haven't build Taiga on linux platforms that much. Ryan created the build scripts for Taiga 0.0.1 long time ago, so it is very much possible but the scripts and config stuff is very much out dated atm.
If you operate on linux regularly I think you wont have any problems building all the projects in Taiga with mono as Toni said they are all in C#. Also I happen to know CableBeaches main developer is very keen on linux and mono development (has commit right to the mono project) and devs CB in linux a lot. So we know OpenSim and modrex is buildable under linux, CableBeach surely is and the last part is OpenID Provider that is a very small simple server that uses same http library and extension loading as CableBeach does so I cant see any problems there. Give it a try, if you succeed I would be very pleased to get some kind of info how to do it. Maybe you could write a short instructions in our wiki on how to do this, would very much appreciate this! :) Best regards, Jonne Nauha realXtend developer http://www.realxtend.org/ http://www.evocativi.com/ On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 12:50 AM, Toni Alatalo <ant...@kyperjokki.fi> wrote: > sal kirjoitti: > > Some friends pointed me to the very interesting taiga server which > > should be able to use a completely new and effective model for > > authentication. > > > > Yes, openid seems to be working nicely - and the good thing is that it > is not totally new, but a normal kind of standard thing that is already > used on the web :) .. but yes quite new in the OpenSim land. > > Taiga gets it from the Cable Beach system / project. > > > However it is quite unclear the procedure (and IF) for making it > > working under Linux (Ubuntu for instance). > > > > One guy in our team was looking into that earlier this week.
