Grider is a client for the safe Hypergrid based on LibOMV's GridProxy, and distributed under a BSD license. Its main goal is to explore the protocols that are appropriate for a globally decentralized Virtual Worlds system without having to develop a 3D render from scratch. As such, it wraps the existing Linden Lab-based viewers, both the official viewer and derivatives such as the Hippo, modifying their communications behavior externally -- no source code modification is involved.
