[Opensim-dev] [opensim-core] snowcrash's contributions

[Teravus Ovares]

As far as there being opensim-core, yes.  It exists.   As far as it
being Secret..   it's not ..    Nor it it intended to be secret.
It's been discussed before on IRC and in previous e-mail on
opensim-dev.   It has OpenSimulator core as it's members.

It has a purpose as well,
Just to be clear:

* The core list is a list where interpersonal and political issues
between the core developers are discussed.   Despite how it may
appear, we don't always agree on everything or even like each other
from time to time.  We would prefer to keep this interpersonal drama
from distracting development.

* The core list is also where core actions are decided upon, like
voting on a new user's entry into core

* We also discuss opensimulator.org server configurations (like using
git for our repository)

* Discussing the Development of OpenSimulator, however, is not
appropriate in opensim-core.  That's what opensim-dev is for.

We also have a core IRC channel #opensim-core on freenode where the
same rules apply.

Regards

Teravus
