Well, I had a look at Croquet before, and even though it seems to be
called OpenCroquet now, I am still not impressed. Admittedly, they
have some nice eye candy, and working portals. These can even display
non-VR applications like web browsers and chess games, neat. Didn't
we have that in
Croquet is very cool. I know Pete and I have been following it and reading about
it since we started VOS. I don't know if its details have influenced our design

And just a general impression... S5 is becoming really complex and
daunting (and sophisticated, and hopefully very powerful) piece of

work in documenting, tutorials, as well as just polishing and refining
the API itself, to
