It's opensim-core, and it's limited to core developers only. They say
they don't discuss anything cool, but I still never liked it, and
retain my right granted by freedom of speech to register that
objection.

However, Nebadon is right, there is no point in making it a "thing".
This project (and any other popular project) has it's share of
bike-shedding as it is.

Ask yourself: do you *really* want to join a flame war about crazy
global-warming-licenses? :)

Cheers,
