[Opensim-dev] User services refactoring status

[Fly Man]

In other words:

Wiredux won't use those connectors but will grab to the database itself.
Wiredux is not a .NET application so it will go directly to the database.

I will wait until the refactoring is done, have a look what's wrecked and
maybe fix it.
