[Opensim-dev] Mumble & Voice

[Stefan Andersson]

Since the SL viewer accepts command line options to tell it what port the
SLVoice service is available on, and also whether to attempt to start
SLVoice.exe, if you don't want to replace the exe, you could just as well
have the custom voice exe start first, establish a service port, then let it
(the voice exe) locate and launch the sl viewer with the correct args,
instead of letting the sl viewer start the hardcoded SLVoice.exe.

We did this in PIM; works like a charm.
