Let me summarize my main puzzlement with the drafts, and with some of 
the things stated here, with one very simple yes/no question that, 
hopefully, the group will get to a consensus in no time:

I have a student starting to work on a JavaScript+HTML5 viewer for 
brain-dead-simple, multi-user, OpenSimulator-served scenes. I can do 
that very easily with OpenSim, since the client protocol is a plugin. Is 
VWRAP set up to develop protocols for interoperability between virtual 
worlds that, like these ones, use the web browser as the client?
a) Yes
b) No

People's answers?
