and i forgot to mention... the definition of "second life-like" worlds
is also in the intro definition, which i repeat here:

•	The Virtual World exists independent of the participating clients.
•	Avatars have a single, unique presence in the virtual world.
•	The virtual world contains persistent objects.
•	The virtual world may be partitioned.
•	Presence, state and simulation is managed on authoritative servers.
•	Version skew between simulation hosts be tolerable.
•	The protocol to access the state of hosts participating in the
virtual world simulation uses Representational State Transfer (REST)
style interaction over HTTP.
•	A persistent, ubiquitous identity accompanies requests between hosts
involved in the virtual world simulation.
