, this would not cancel out the 6 months cooldown period that would be applied to your work with the 1.x viewer code base, since that has not been relicensed, or at least not yet. Melanie Dickson, Mike (ISS Software) wrote: So, LL has released the viewer 2 codebase as LGPL v2 (as opposed to GPLv2

Ok, this is a slightly different position than I've heard before... The issue of simple code inclusion is well defined IMO, OpenSIM core can't include GPL'd code into the BSD licensed core without running afoul of the GPL. That's a simple license compatibility issue. But in the past what I've

I made my assumption and asked for clarification because it didn't specifically state what's listed on the Wiki. Thanks for the reference. Finding things in the Wiki can be.. ummm. Challenging. In particular Diva didn't address the 6mos rule and seemed to focus on the GPL. If I misread I

My understanding from the OGP discussions to date is that the protocol doesn't *require* persistent accounts. That's more an issue of policy for the agent domain. Mike -Original Message- From: opensim-dev-boun...@lists.berlios.de [mailto:opensim-dev-boun...@lists.berlios.de] On

Right, but any decent framework/platform that has any expectation of being used designs in the open and publishes a roadmap for the changes planned so that people that do wish to productize around it can plan and do so without huge hassles. They don't just throw shit up on a wall and see what

[Opensim-dev] Working config using the new connector architecture?

2009-09-13 Thread Dickson, Mike (ISS Software)
Does anyone have a working config using the new connector architecture? There are bunches of example files in the bin directory for the old way (OpenSIm.ini) and the new way (OpenSim.Server.in ... I think) and honestly I'm not sure what has to be set up to use the connector style and what

I'd agree with Dave on this one. Just a simple long ps listing gets you the password if its on cleartext on the command line. At least the file can be locked down via permissions. A password on the command line is pretty much insecure. Might as well not have one. Mike -Original

Might also look at the git submodule stuff for a case like Diva's where you really want a separate repo but it's attached to another tree. That is, the git tip at the main repo has core code and the submodules refer to separate trees with dependant but not mainline features. Mike
