So, it's like LL made something that the military was interested in buying, and now maybe they're interested in buying it again? Like that?
Actually, what you say sounds like LL sells the whole SL package, server & everything as a product or something. Must be expensive! Am i getting it right? Thx! - AK ------------------------------------------- As far as I can see, It's the replacement for the SL Enterprise project, an older project by Linden Lab to create a Second Life "behind the firewall". Basically internal grids for companies. I know the US Army had interests for this training/meeting wise and looking into it, put money in it. http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2012/03/second-life-enterprise-was-a-costly-mistake/ http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2010/08/second-life-discontinues-enterprise-platform/ http://venturebeat.com/2009/11/03/linden-lab-launches-enterprise-version-of-second-life-virtual-world/ It's not really LL related I think.

What does SL (or i guess, LL) have to do with the military? Is there any kind of real connection or something? Are some of the SL devs military people?

MOSES (Military Open Simulator Enterprise Strategy) is a privately-hosted, OpenSim, online virtual environment with stringent security from hackers. MIAB (MOSES In A Box) is a portable, publically-licensed version of the experimental Project MOSES virtual environment which can be downloaded and installed on standalone individual or enterprise servers. STTC (United States Army Simulation and Training Technology Center) provides state-of-the-art applied research to develop simulation technologies. Hot topics at todays Office Hours meeting were the Approved Participation Agreement and Recent Performance Adjustments to the MOSES Firewall. After a lengthy discussion on the formalized status of MOSES and MIAB, participants were invited to conduct a free-for-all, spontaneous capacity performance test by running and jumping and flying around all at once while still talking in chat. It was marvelous! Selected Quotes The project has reached a level of maturity such that it is no longer considered "proof of concept" and the STTC has decided to formalize the participation agreements between the MOSES project and its users.
