If I may chime in - ultimate super awesome idealistic (and likely pipe-dream) view of the future from my end. Light weight web based viewers that allow for just the basics such as rendering / movement, basic inventory (changing of attachments, clothing, organization of folders), joining / leaving of groups, and chat. Heck, maybe even the extras outside of rendering / movement could be left out of the viewer component and added in as external pieces to the containing web page which should in theory make a web viewer even more simplistic and light weight. For "power" users that need the full on facilities like building / editing, groups management, land settings, estate settings, and so on - use a regular installed viewer.

Why not use a modern viewer like Singularity with a old V1 interface .. This is 
why people still love up2date viewers with a simple GUI ..

Hello Justin,

Thank you for your feedback !

In the case these Viewers would still not be enough user-friendly or non-mature enough, I 
was thinking "simplifying" one of these viewers, ie taking code away from their 
source. Of course that creates a maintenance issue, but we'd get a Viewer for Dummies or 
so !?
A couple of people seems having done that already.

What do you think ?

Thanks again,

Unfortunately, I think that currently power equates to viewer complexity, 
though maybe people will disagree with me on that.

The web-based viewer efforts are very interesting but I don't know how long it 
will be until they're ready for primetime - could be quite a while.

I'm not sure I could express a preference since all the viewers seem 
complicated to me :), but one list for assessment is at [1] if you've not 
already seen that.
