[Opensim-dev] Region module project for addition to forge

[Fleep Tuque]

Hi Kevin,

I haven't tried the module since this is the first I've heard of it (have a
link?) but I can think of all sorts of educational applications for such a
module since many interactive simulations that our team develops uses HUDs
that we first have to explain to users how to wear.  Sounds like a very
interesting project and I'd love to try it out.
