[Opensim-dev] Translating VRML for use in OPENSIM

[Marcus Alexander Link]

Hi,

you could say the IRC channel #opensim is the hangout for coders.
If someone has information, news that could be of interest for ppl who
are "following" the twitter hashtag #opensim (often also coders), they
add it to their tweet.

Posts via twitter are "more generally" related to the OpenSim/3D
Internet/Metaverse topic.
But you are right, twitter is some type of "asynchronous chat", with a
persistent chat history.

Regards,
Marcus
