Yeah, I would love to see a useable viewer which just did the basics and was ideally web-based (maybe with modular
options for extra complexity). Ideally webgl - I know it's nowhere near the performance of a native client atm but like
it or not, the convenience of the web eats many things eventually (including this, imo).
But that could still be some way off.

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.
