That all looks very reasonable.

Perhaps we should put a big disclaimer in RED text when OpenSim starts
up about the fact that "this is alpha software, and as such is known to
break.  Only proceed if you are interested in helping make things better
through bug reports and code contributions."

I think the issue that has occured is a lot of people are getting ahead
of themselves in doing OpenSim grid deployments assuming more is going
to work than does.

Reminder folks, there has only been a single release, 0.4, which only
supports standalone mode and no physics.  If you want stable, please use
that.  There is no such thing as stable grid mode.

There is no silver bullet.  Plus, werewolves make better neighbors
than zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
