errm: the statement "OpenSim is not SecondLife" IS NOT EQUIVALENT to "the goal
of OpenSim is to be incompatible with everyone elses vision".

it allows us to run it in a (mostly) SecondLife compatible mode.

Would love to see a quote from IBM on that! as far as i know and am aware of IBM
is still using OpenSim big time and even including it as part of their IBM
Sametime 3D service offering.
