[Opensim-dev] Implemented oar merge facility

[Jeroen van Veen]

awesome! is there a maximum filesize for this? I can imagine that 20mb+ oar 
files may cause problems? I would like to implement an oar template 
loader/saver into a webinterface. This would really make things easier. Any 
suggestions how to make save-oar work in a centralized infrastructure?
