Re: [vwrap] Conditioners and refineries

[Dzonatas Sol <[e-mail]>]

Much of the discussion is actually implemented, already (somehow). What 
"you" want, however, seems to be to have some LL-employee/OpenSim-dev to 
rewrite, reauthorize, reinvent, and bloat the monolithic client or add 
redundant capabilities on the simulators as some means to state what is 
official in VWRAP. None of that needs to happen, and please don't give 
the appearance that "we" need to beg any of them for implementation 
(especially, to tally some vote). Remember that the 
user-end/front-end/graphics-client is the one doing the real work. The 
simulator still exists as a router due to legacy reasons, so there is 
really no need to rely on LL sims or Opensim to implement any of this. 
(I'm sure backwards compatible is ideal.) The only exception is "domains".

No need to leverage the weight of storage over implementation. The ideal 
word is "cohesion" of various implementations...  not rewrite. Any 
rewrite or customization of implementations in any company is that 
company's business, not ours. Your assumption of what is in our "grasp" 
is in error because you assumed it in only part of LL or such 
reverse-engineered simulator, and there is no need for this sympathy 
here unless you're tried to win points with them somehow.

Win points here... not there...

cardinal principle highlighted in BCP 95.  Since we do not have the 
power to test our ideas within Second Life, but only within open source 
frameworks like Opensim, SL compatibility is beyond our reach until such 
a time as Linden Lab provides the required test implementation.  In the 
absence of that, only Opensim and/or realXtend compatibility is within 
our grasp because we can add the "running code" there ourselves.
