"Second-Life-like"? NOOOOOO!!!!!!! If you want a "Second-Life-Like" virtual world, go with OpenSim... the architecture I contributed to MXP is not intended to replicate the Second Life set of assumptions. And I think if MXP is producing a Second Life experience, it is because it is being used in a certain way.
Can it be that I architected something specifically to move beyond the Second Life assumptions (square regions tied to specific hardware, avatars as special objects, scripting only in the server, and on and on) and then have it come full circle and be described as producing a "Second-Life-like" experience? There is a major disconnect here.
