robert, in reply to your sidebar, i had previously been experimenting with/testing prototypes for an ubuntu-based live cd setup with everything needed to run a standalone grid including:
- optimized versions of apache, mysql and php (for 'spareware' installations) - opensim with the latest services bundle in place - optional icecast and mumble servers for local parcel media and alternate voice services, respectively (i've gotten freeswitch to work, but honestly the unpredictable quality is not worth the trouble) - preconfigured ip-tables - misc. scripts for maintenance it was originally intended for educational use in schools with limited budgets and resources an/or for those looking to break away from commercial platforms and make that leap into the world of freedom and open source goodness ;) there have been relatively successful versions in the past, but most of those projects seem to have gone dorment and opensim has changed significantly since then. i'd love to get back on track with this and get a working image assembled for people to try out in various envronments. if you (or anyone else) is interested in being a tester or perhaps sharing some thoughts on which fearures would be beneficial or unnecessary, let me know. i cannot commit to a turnaround time for this but much of the annoying work is already done so it's just a matter of refining and testing (and of course writing decent documentation). - core / jason On 8/26/2012 11:32 AM, Robert Martin wrote: > On Sat, Aug 25, 2012 at 5:46 AM, Klaus-E.
