[Opensim-dev] The state of content tools

[Frank Nichols]

Currently, if you need it NOW, there is Prim Composer for 3ds Max, but 
the point of that is to use 3ds Max to build sculpties.

What Opensim NEEDS is the ability to use meshes and that is both a 
client and server issue. RealXtend would help.
