About meshes from Evolver used as rigged wearable, the problem seems to be the

In some of the online docs, it would seem that a specific # of bones
and bone names have
to be used. Somewhat surprising, as I had thought that any mesh with
any armature should
naturally be importable (i.e., if you wanted to build a robot arm with
3 bones) into the
viewer.
I've been trying to get a decent mesh avatar together, it's not a piece
of cake. You are correct that the SL armature has a specific amount of
bones and even specific names. This site has been helpful, but it is
still on Blender 2.49.

Here are updates for that page, for 2.5x users:

I am still struggling with this, so cannot offer much help at this
point. Hope this has shed some light on the subject!
