"The latter needs to be avoided for reasons of liability."
actually, .. no. That isn't entirely true.
That statement should be rephrased, "The latter needs to be avoided
for reasons of public relations.". Our license protects us from what
individuals do with the software.. however, we are
I'll consider that 'point taken' and agree to agree with the legal edge-case
represented by LL, though I would point out that such whholesale exporting
of content is already well underway.
Thanks for taking the time to consider my views ;)

Hi,
unfortunately, I believe the potential for abuse outstrips the
usefulness here.
The issue is not necessarily with individual creators, who would
maybe be happy with proper attribution, but rather with Linden Labs.
I believe they would take an interest if wholesale copying of

Perhaps So Mel, ButWhere is the similar licensing or release from
obligation under license for the OS grid content?
It seems to me there's a double standard in the offing here, whereby content
from the Linden Grid is hands-off for legal reasons, but not so much as a
tip of the hat in that
The origin of this thread was OARs and IARs (for content porting between
OpenSims), and foreign users (for the HG). I don't think there was ever

Hi,
that is a truly secondary concern to me. It is outright illegal to
transfer items, creator information or not, unless the creator
agrees and cooperates. In this rare case, the creator would register
on the destination grid and then have a name and profile.
A means of preserving SL creator i
There are some strong ideas here for the future, but I think that the
original problem has been lost in the mix (or perhaps I missed something in
the thread, not entirely out of the question ;)
Unless I am mistaken, the real problem is older content imported from SL -
how to preserve the creator ID

Ok, so then hash those urls for UUIDs to present to the viewer? We

An asset URI might just be http://asset_server/assets/asset_uuid
So, local lookups can be UUID in the DB table.

I don't know about *never* wanting foreign user info in a DB..., but the
URL idea is super!
A UUID is a very weak form of identification. We really need to start
thinking globally for 'names', and users is a good starting point.
So 100+ on URLs as IDs.

Whatever you decided to do (option 3 seems the cleanest), this will
probably also be used in the Hypergrid, to keep track of foreign users.
I need that! :-)

Hello,
For Inventory Archives I plan to preserve item creator information. When the
archive is loaded I would like to recreate
these profiles where possible/necessary (grid operators can choose not to allow
this and that will be the default, I
expect).
However, unless an item creator has an
