> (16:14:20) Melanie_t: we've been here before. i'm astonished that you of

> (16:15:07) Melanie_t: it's called that int he LL packet, we can't change

> (16:15:08) Kirtai: Call it SearchKeys

> (16:15:45) Hiro_Protagonist: Snowcrash, you need to ask yourself whether

> (16:15:59) diva: in LL's search
> (16:16:00) Fly-Man-: diva: http://search.pastebin.com/d69c6d45
> (16:16:02) Melanie_t: and since search is so coarse to start with, that

> (16:16:14) Snowcrash: if you think you gain something for the project by

> (16:16:15) diva: that's Linden Lab;'s search
> (16:16:16) Melanie_t: diva: LL is still all the client we have
> (16:16:16) Fly-Man-: Above part, RegionHandle from SL
> (16:16:27) Fly-Man-: Below part, OpenSim response
> (16:16:28) Hiro_Protagonist: Diva, Melanie_T - time out for a sec
> (16:16:39) Hiro_Protagonist: lets not go to blows if you please
> (16:17:03) Hiro_Protagonist: 1st question: is it possible to use this

> (16:17:12) Fly-Man-: Hiro_Protagonist: Yes
> (16:17:15) Melanie_t: hell no
> (16:17:22) Fly-Man-: The packet already exists
> (16:17:23) Melanie_t: Regionhandshake is a linden packet
> (16:17:28) Hiro_Protagonist: clearly it's in our interest to implement
> all the packets
> (16:17:33) Melanie_t: so it actually US a lindenism
> (16:17:37) Melanie_t: IS*
> (16:17:40) diva: I have no problem with the packets having that info
> (16:17:45) Hiro_Protagonist: obviously we dont want to be tied to linden
> specific uses of this particular packet
> (16:17:49) Fly-Man-: diva: Where is your problem then ?
> (16:18:01) Melanie_t: her problem is the work "Prodict"
> (16:18:11) Melanie_t: althogh 95% of core are commercially motivated
> (16:18:24) Hiro_Protagonist: Melanie_T: that's not really a defense
> (16:18:29) Melanie_t: by either being employed by a company that is
> commercially motivated
> (16:18:36) Melanie_t: or being in business related to opensim
> (16:18:40) diva: I have a problem with us using that info in core as

> (16:18:43) Hiro_Protagonist: opensim is not for 95% of the users its for

> (16:18:56) diva: so if there'e a technical reason for that string in

> (16:19:01) Melanie_t: but here 5% want to limit the abilities of the 95%
> (16:19:08) Fly-Man-: diva: then ask Linden Labs to change it to
> InfoSpace
> (16:19:09) Kirtai: may I make a suggestion?
> (16:19:10) Fly-Man-: or whatever
> (16:19:26) diva: Technical reason
> (16:19:29) Hiro_Protagonist: I really have difficulty believing that Mel
> (16:19:37) Fly-Man-: diva: Showing the right info in Search
> (16:19:44) Fly-Man-: usage of information for Caps message
> (16:19:47) Hiro_Protagonist: that's a Melanie_T opinion, not what Diva
> has expressed
> (16:19:50) Melanie_t: Hiro_Protagonist: believing what?
> (16:19:55) Melanie_t: the commercial motivation?
> (16:19:57) Fly-Man-: and telling the user where he is at
> (16:20:03) Fly-Man-: that's the technical reasons
> (16:20:03) Hiro_Protagonist: that 5% wants to limit the other 95%
> (16:20:34) Hiro_Protagonist: we dont have the packet implemented now,
> and I certainly am not missing the use of it in my enterprise
> (16:20:44) Fly-Man-: Hiro_Protagonist: The packet is already implemented
> (16:20:47) Fly-Man-: LONG time ago
> (16:20:47) Melanie_t: well, if that info should not be sent because the
> 5% here object to something that can be used for productization being
> included,, then it is so
> (16:20:52) Fly-Man-: but the value isn't send
> (16:21:03) Hiro_Protagonist: then it isnt fully implemented
> (16:21:06) Fly-Man-: the only change Melanie_t made
> (16:21:13) Fly-Man-: is to add the value to the Region example
> (16:21:20) Fly-Man-: so it can be used for ppl that want to use it
> (16:21:30) Fly-Man-: You're not asked when creating a new region
> (16:21:36) Fly-Man-: just when you set it up yourself
> (16:21:48) Fly-Man-: and at this moment, that value is not send in the

> (16:21:55) Fly-Man-: as that's not implemented
> (16:21:57) diva: Melanie_t: I respect your busniess plans, but there's a

> (16:22:00) Hiro_Protagonist: from an architectural perspective, I have

> (16:22:08) Kirtai: It sounds like what you want is a general region
> tagging and search facility, but definining it as Product is

> (16:22:24) Melanie_t: diva: we are all sharing development foe each of

> (16:22:31) Hiro_Protagonist: that said, I am not antagonistic from

> (16:22:52) Melanie_t: and regardless of a name
> (16:22:59) Melanie_t: that is precisely what we all do
> (16:23:09) Melanie_t: assist others in developing their product
> (16:23:22) diva: My product has nothing to do with Linden Lab's product.

> (16:23:23) Melanie_t: i just don't have an idealistic veneer over it.

> (16:23:41) Snowcrash: I would like to point out, that I am not here for

> (16:23:47) diva: call it something else, give me a technical reason
> (16:23:59) diva: a technical concept
> (16:23:59) Fly-Man-: Technical reason
> (16:24:08) Fly-Man-: If you implement it:
> (16:24:12) Hiro_Protagonist: I'm not at all sure why you are here at all
> Snowcrash
> (16:24:20) Fly-Man-: 'Search can work better as it knows the value"
> (16:24:29) Fly-Man-: "Search can make sure it finds the right info for

> (16:24:38) diva: Flye-Man- that;s a search that mimics Linden Lab's
