		+	Welcome to OpenSim!
		+
		+	==================
		+	==== OVERVIEW ====
		+	==================
		+
		+	OpenSim is a BSD Licensed Open Source project to develop a functioning
		+	virtual worlds server platform capable of supporting multiple clients
		+	and servers in a heterogeneous grid structure. OpenSim is written in
		+	C#, and can run under Mono or the Microsoft .NET runtimes.
		+
		+	This is considered an alpha release. Some stuff works, a lot doesn't.
		+	If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
		+
		+	=========================
		+	=== Compiling OpenSim ===
		+	=========================
		+
		+	Please see BUILDING.txt if you downloaded a source distribution and
		+	need to build OpenSim before running it.
		+
		+	==================================
		+	=== Running OpenSim on Windows ===
		+	==================================
		+
		+	We recommend that you run OpenSim from a command prompt on Windows in order
		+	to capture any errors.
		+
		+	To run OpenSim from a command prompt
		+
		+	* cd to the bin/ directory where you unpacked OpenSim
		+	* run OpenSim.exe
		+
		+	Now see the "Configuring OpenSim" section
		+
		+	================================
		+	=== Running OpenSim on Linux ===
		+	================================
		+
		+	You will need Mono >= 2.4.3 to run OpenSim. On some Linux distributions you
		+	may need to install additional packages. See http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Dependencies
		+	for more information.
		+
		+	To run OpenSim, from the unpacked distribution type:
		+
		+	* cd bin
		+	* mono OpenSim.exe
		+
		+	Now see the "Configuring OpenSim" section
		+
		+	===========================
		+	=== Configuring OpenSim ===
		+	===========================
		+
		+	When OpenSim starts for the first time, you will be prompted with a
		+	series of questions that look something like:
		+
		+	[09-17 03:54:40] DEFAULT REGION CONFIG: Simulator Name [OpenSim Test]:
		+
		+	For all the options except simulator name, you can safely hit enter to accept
		+	the default if you want to connect using a client on the same machine or over
		+	your local network.
		+
		+	You will then be asked "Do you wish to join an existing estate?". If you're
		+	starting OpenSim for the first time then answer no (which is the default) and
		+	provide an estate name.
		+
		+	Shortly afterwards, you will then be asked to enter an estate owner first name,
		+	last name, password and e-mail (which can be left blank). Do not forget these
		+	details, since initially only this account will be able to manage your region
		+	in-world. You can also use these details to perform your first login.
		+
		+	Once you are presented with a prompt that looks like:
		+
		+	Region (My region name) #
		+
		+	You have successfully started OpenSim.
		+
		+	If you want to create another user account to login rather than the estate
		+	account, then type "create user" on the OpenSim console and follow the prompts.
		+
		+	Helpful resources:
		+	* http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Configuration
		+	* http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Configuring_Regions
		+
		+	==================================
		+	=== Connecting to your OpenSim ===
		+	==================================
		+
		+	By default your sim will be available for login on port 9000. You can login by
		+	adding -loginuri http://127.0.0.1:9000 to the command that starts Second Life
		+	(e.g. in the Target: box of the client icon properties on Windows). You can
		+	also login using the network IP address of the machine running OpenSim (e.g.
		+	http://192.168.1.2:9000)
		+
		+	To login, use the avatar details that you gave for your estate ownership or the
		+	one you set up using the "create user" command.
		+
		+	===================
		+	=== Bug reports ===
		+	===================
		+
		+	In the very likely event of bugs biting you (err, your OpenSim) we
		+	encourage you to see whether the problem has already been reported on
		+	the OpenSim mantis system. You can find the OpenSim mantis system at
		+
		+	http://opensimulator.org/mantis/main_page.php
		+
		+	If your bug has already been reported, you might want to add to the
		+	bug description and supply additional information.
		+
		+	If your bug has not been reported yet, file a bug report ("opening a
		+	mantis"). Useful information to include:
		+	* description of what went wrong
		+	* stack trace
		+	* OpenSim.log (attach as file)
		+	* OpenSim.ini (attach as file)
		+	* if running under mono: run OpenSim.exe with the "--debug" flag:
		+
		+	mono --debug OpenSim.exe
		+
		+	===================================
		+	=== More Information on OpenSim ===
		+	===================================
		+
		+	More extensive information on building, running, and configuring
		+	OpenSim, as well as how to report bugs, and participate in the OpenSim
		+	project can always be found at http://opensimulator.org.
		+
		+	Thanks for trying OpenSim, we hope it is a pleasant experience.
