The Rumor system is intended to allow regions to offer a way for players to start anonymous, but moderated, in character rumors for all other players to find through NPCs or quests.

The Rumor System comes in two parts - a standalone server script with a notecard of "starting" or "seed" rumors that the region admin

[edit] OpenSim Only

LSL does not provide library calls to find out information about which "estate" (group of regions) a given region belongs to.

This means each REGION must have a region setting server to provide a custom setting and changes to the setting in one region must be manually copied to other regions.

I have started experimenting with the IRCBridgeModule to provide Estate-wide communications and allow a single region setting server to serve data to all regions in an estate.

This will not work in SecondLife which has no IRC connectivity.

This IRC connectivity can also provide an excellent cross-region team radio chat.
