[Opensim-dev] Signing content to prevent malicous creator spoofing was "Re: Global identifiers"

[diva at metaverseink.com]

Content signing is definitely _way_ out of scope. But that doesn't mean 
that we shouldn't talk about it.

My impression is that if that ever happens, it must happen as a 3rd 
party service. I just don't see how that can work S2S.

HG is about doing the best that can be done with S2S, because S2S is an 
architecture that has proven to be robust and scalable historically 
speaking. What can't be done with S2S... 3rd party services ftw!
