Re: [mmox] Creating walled gardens considered harmful

I've been lurking for some time now and reading and trying to understand the
basic user requirement that is driving this work. I have to admit this is as
close as I've seen.

I understand "teleport" (and believe if you can define it well enough, smart
people can make it so) but it leaves me asking why? Why would a user desire
to "teleport" from one VWE to another? The answer to this will, I believe,
help you focus on what needs to be included in the definition of what it
means to "teleport", and what can be safely set aside for the moment.
