Let me apologize for the combined response below, i get the digest, and
Gmail doesnt make it easy to separate.

Actually, it does. It's just not 100% complete. The current Video technology
we are using is 2D anyway.

I'm really liking the summary that Morgaine put together below; I believe it
was mentioned at the meeting as well:

  *to create a mashup in which the user's avatar is now in a new
world setting and visible to new people*.

I would like to change this slighty by adding quotes around the "world" and
removing the word "people" changing it to avatars or entities. I feel pretty
strongly that we are overly anthropomorphisizing our user agents (avatars)
and tending to grant them rights (and positions) that they do not have or
need.
