[Opensim-dev] Package manager

[Diva Canto]

To take this thread to a happy ending, I've now cleaned up OpenSim's use 
of mono addins, and devised how to use them properly in order to manage 
3rd-party packages in OpenSim.The result of this is both in the latest 
commits of OpenSim core and in a concrete example that explains how to 
do it.

The package consumer's side of the process is explained here:

The package developer's side of the process is explained here:

Note that in spite of extensive changes I made to OpenSim in the last 
couple of days, this embodies things that were already possible before, 
but that no one had done. The changes I made were primarily to clean up 
OpenSim's use of mono addins, which was really confusing, and wasn't 
helping anyone take advantage of the capability that was already there.

Happy New Year!
