We have a group in SL now that's open to join, it will be in charge of the land as soon as that happens.
I cant join... I also want to point out that there is also a Free Software group (where I am officer). I don't know how many of you are using Linux, but some of the Linux users also have made some hacks for the Linux client. I could imagine that libsecondlife could make some things going in Linux cleint that right now aren't because it is alpha. And I would be happy to see this implemented as free software -maybe we do not need it to be programmed proprietary, than. A few words about myself: I am not a programmer, but active in the free software community since many years. I have set up SecondTux wiki (for Linux users): http://stux.wikiinfo.org/ , which collects information about available tools and stuff that helps Linux users (like Avimator). I have also organized some meetings in the past (the first Linux Group meetings but after a split I formed the Free Software Group in SL, btw everybody is invited to join!). Summer was hot and I did not organized any meetings. But I think I see a lot of traffic and activity here, but I did not see any inworld meetings? So I would like to suggest one. I think it is always fun to meet people directly and also not only to meet few. I guess all of you are SL users? So we would need a meeting point and we should have a time that also allows non-US citizens to come by. What about next saturday at 12 pm? But I think the officers of this group should organize the rest and maybe also have some good places to meet? If we have a date I will also invite members of free software group where we also had some good discussions about what is possible in SL . I am actually very surprised that so much is happening here. And I am quite happy about it. Actually the reason of the split of the Linux Users group was that that many of Linux users seemed to be against opening the source of SecondLife which led to many harsh words. And I think it is great that many ppl here are just doing it and also that there is support of Linden Labs. I also think that libsecondlife only is the beginning of a development and that we will see a lot more projects building on it. cu, Vinci Calamari (SL) / Thilo Pfennig (RL) -- http://vinci.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ libsecondlife-dev mailing list libsecondlife-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/libsecondlife-dev
