[Opensim-dev] Super easy question

[BlueWall Slade]

Also, ODE is an open platform for anyone to modify and does joint physics (
Can't do this in SL -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nirTXPO-opE ) . A couple
of people with interest and talent in OpenSim and the physics engine could
probably bring it up to a better solution for OpenSim anyway.
