[Opensim-dev] Beta? (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Frank Nichols]

"I do not think that the alpha or beta flag has not got a real meaning
other that some people seem to have some sort of expectation of it.
When OpenSim would get a gamma flag or so it would not change anything."\

For you it may mean nothing, for a commercial startup trying to get funding
it could be everything. At some point I would like to see OS become more
mainstream, but for it to really take off I do believe it will need to
"play the game" of appearing more serious. I do not mean to dis the
developers at all - I am totally amazed at the work done on OS and have
nothing but the utmost respect for them. I am simply saying that I believe
for OS to "take off" out in the wild - appearances will play a big role.
